Dinner Honors Mr. and Mrs. Bill Woo
Over 300 friends and relatives gathered March 28 at
Golden Palace Restaurant to honoc outstanding Houstonians
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Woo on the occasion of their sixtieth
birthday. The joyous celebration was hosted by the Woos'
children and grandchildren: Mr. and Mrs. Robert Quan and
children Tommy, Debbie, Cindy and Eileen; Mr. and Mrs.
Peter Lee of Los Angeles; Mr. and Mrs. Patrick So and son
Michael; and Misses Nancy and Kathy Woo. Bill Quan and
Lewis Yee, themselves distinguished community leaders who
have over the years worked with Bill Woo in the Houston
Chinese American Citizens Alliance, served as co-emcees
for the evening. Numerous other Chinese community leaders
could be found in attendance, in honor of a couple who
have dedicated many hours of their lives for the-benefit
of the community. Many gifts were offered in tribute to
their many contributions. In return, the Woos joined with
their children in extending generous donations to 11
community groups.
Presently retired from business, Bill Woo stays active
with his community involvement, and was recently appointed
by the president of the Republic of China in Taiwan to its
Commission of Overseas Chinese Affairs.
