Goodbye to an Old Soldier

Tai Ke Chou, Sindy's stepfather died yesterday at age 86 from pneumonia. He was a retired colonel in the Taiwanese army and he served as an assistant to Chiang Kai-Shek during the late 1960's. He was a very powerful man and even at age 86 he never lost that fierce determination.

This picture was taken in 2006 on his birthday.
