VIn memory of my sister(20週年感謝)/By 陸璞厲 Polly Lo

 20 years! How time flies! But there is not one day that goes by that I didn't wish you were here with me!  You brought me up, taught me everything I know, and guided me for everything I do.  I miss you!

 In memory of my sister

　　感謝Baker的同事們在20年後, 今天仍然記得姐姐。 I am sure you miss her too!

　　姐姐 had many principles in life. She always told me: live your life in full,  like there is no tomorrow.

 -- work hard and never give up

 -- never take "no" as an answer when you know that you are right

 -- admit your mistake and try to make up for it

 -- always think of others, be generous to everyone

 -- help people when they are at their lowest spots, not when they are in their glorious time

 -- love your friends like they are your family

 -- treat people who work with you like your family too

 -- never forget where we come from, our family, our roots and our story.

 -- be independent, count on yourself and no others

 -- always have dreams, set up your goals and go get it!

 with these principles in mind, I like to share with you 3 stories

 -- 姐姐 loved shopping. She would arrive from Taiwan to Philadelphia to my mom’s place, without rest, without sleep and with the time difference of 时差，she would insist that we go shopping directly.

　　One time, we shop at the mall for 10 hours right after she got off the plane. But nothing was for her, only presents for others. 秘書的禮物 、同事 baby的禮物、 同事的太太的禮物、 孫司機的禮物、 阿幼婆的禮物 、 女朋友的禮物, etc. 她自己沒有休息，沒有買一件東西給自己，都是大家的禮物。 Always think of others!

• Baker was her life! (before Anchi and Luan were born)! I remember when Baker moved to 敦化北路，she chose the architect, chose the materials, planed and re-planed the space, planed and re-planned the meeting rooms. She was working during the day, and she would work on the plans and choose the furniture at night. She worked day and night for this dream:  the dream to create and develop Baker in an environment where everyone would be happy and work in harmony like a big family.  Baker 有如她的大家庭, 也有如我的大家庭。 This is the feeling I still have every time I come back.  Treat people work with you like your family too!

• 姐姐 loved Taiwan. She believed in Taiwan. She wanted people know that Taiwan was the best place. At that time in 1985, Taiwan was not easy for foreigners to create factories. She helped Carrefour and Logitech to create their first base in Asia. The 創始人 of Logitech told me that without Dolly, Logitech would have never been the same. He was forever grateful that 姐姐 helped him, believed in him when he was at his lowest spot, when he only had a garage factory. 姐姐 fought through the local authority, helped him to create his first big factory in Taiwan.

　　There are many many stories to tell about her. And I was most fortunate to have known her for 34 years old my life!

感謝 Baker 的同事們，I am sure she is somehow here with us, with John,  Anchi and Luan. May she always lives in everyone’s heart!

　　

20年了！時間過得真快啊！但沒有一天我不希望你跟我在一起！  您養育了我，教會了我所知道的一切，並指導了我所做的一切。  我想你！

 為了紀念我的妹妹

　　感謝貝克的同事們在20年後，今天仍然記得姐姐。

　　姐姐做人有很多原則。她總是告訴我：充實地生活，就像沒有明天一樣。

 ——努力工作，永不放棄

 ——當你知道自己是對的時候，永遠不要把「不」當作答案

 ——承認錯誤並努力彌補

 ——時時刻刻為他人著想，對每個人都慷慨

 ——在人們處於最低潮時幫助他們，而不是在他們輝煌的時候幫助他們

 ——像愛家人一樣愛你的朋友

 ——對待與你一起工作的人就像對待你的家人一樣

 ——永遠不要忘記我們來自哪裡、我們的家庭、我們的根源和我們的故事。

 ——獨立，靠自己，不依賴別人

 ——永遠懷抱夢想，設定目標，去實現它！

 謹記這些原則，我想與大家分享 3 個故事

 -- 姐姐喜歡購物。她會從台灣到費城到我媽媽那裡，不休息，不睡覺，時差很大，她會堅持要我們直接去購物。 再次有一次，她一下飛機，我們就在商場購物了10個小時。但沒有什麼是給她的，只是給別人的禮物。 同事的禮物、同事寶寶的禮物、同事太太的禮物、孫司機的禮物、阿幼婆的禮物、女友的禮物等 永遠為別人著想！ 貝克就是她的生命！ （在Anchi和Luan出生之前）！我記得當貝克搬到敦化北路時，她選擇了建築師，選擇了材料，規劃並重新規劃了空間，規劃並重新規劃了會議室。她白天工作，晚上則制定計劃並選擇家具。她日以繼夜地為這個夢想而努力：夢想在一個像大家庭一樣快樂、和諧的環境中創造和發展貝克。 貝克有如她的大家庭，也有如我的大家庭。 對待與你一起工作的人就像對待你的家人一樣！ 姐姐很喜歡台灣。她相信台灣。她想讓人們知道台灣是最好的地方。 1985年的時候，外國人在台灣辦工廠並不容易。她幫助家樂福和羅技建立了他們在亞洲的第一個基地。羅技的創辦人告訴我，如果沒有 Dolly，羅技就不再一樣。他永遠感激姐姐幫助了他，在他最低潮、只有一家車庫工廠的時候相信了他。 姐姐透過當地政府的努力，幫助他在台灣創立了第一家大工廠。 關於她的故事有很多很多。我一生中最幸運的是在34歲時認識她！ 再次感謝貝克的同事們，我不知何故但敢肯定，她和我們在一起，和John、Anchi和Luan在一起。願她永遠活在大家心裡！
