In Memory of Mrs. Juliet M. Lwin

On May 9th, 2025, Mr. Fan Zhang (President of the Olympia Area Chinese Association) and many other former board members participated in the Celebration of Life and Faith in Loving Memory of Juliet Myint Lwin (曹蘭瑛).

August 23rd, 1940 ~ April 15th, 2025

Juliet served as Secretary of the Olympia Area Chinese Association (OACA) during the 1984–1985 term and president during the 1996–1997 term. She was also a Chinese teacher at the Olympia Chinese School for many years, where she taught Chinese language, dance, and calligraphy. She was an active member who dedicated significant time and effort to the Chinese community.

Without the support and contributions of volunteers, OACA would not be able to grow or help pass on Chinese culture to future generations. Juliet was one of those dedicated individuals. In her memory, President Mr. Zhang, on behalf of OACA, presented a heartfelt sympathy card. Mrs. Wendy Seid—one of OACA’s founding directors, former president, and former Vice President of Education—gave a touching speech.

Attendees from the Chinese community included:

• Mrs. Wendy Seid (one of OACA's initial directors, former president, and former vice president of Education)
• Mrs. Barbara Chin (wife of Mr. Alexander Shui-Sun Mar, former OACA president)
• Mrs. Ivy Jen & Mr. Franklin Jen (former OACA president)
• Mrs. Wendy Chen (former OACA Vice President of Administration) & Mr. Michael Chen
• Mr. Fan Zhang (current OACA president)
• Mr. Gang Ma (former OACA president)
