Honorable Elder Weizhong
I've come to see you today
One last ride for you
I only knew two of them in the farewell procession
One is Liu Fulian, the former political commissar of our Beijing Military Region
One is Ma Yuwei, former deputy director of the Political Department of the Beijing Military Region
Political Commissar Liu said that although you are gone
But your spirit lives on!
Although the Beijing Military Region is gone
But the people of the Beijing Military Region are still there!
So don't feel lonely
You are carrying the wishes of your old comrades-in-arms
You are carrying the honor that the party and the people have given you
You are traveling far away with the dreams of poor children!
It's been a long time
It's so kind to see you today
Even with a smile on his face
Because I see
In the ranks of several hundred people who saw them off
It seems that there are no officials
In addition to the former General Political Department and comrades-in-arms of the Beijing Military Region
The vast majority are students you have selflessly sponsored
Tears welled down their faces
Their hearts and hands trembling with bouquets
How can they believe it
Grandpa Zhao, who is so kind to them
How can you say that you will just leave?!
Their hearts are calling
Grandpa Zhao, don't go
Because you sent me back to school
I haven't thanked you yet
I want to repay you with the wonder of my life!
In the farewell hall
You only have four relatives
You are not giving them any personal gain at work
You left them without leaving a penny deposit
But you are relieved
Because you give all your love to the common people
All of them are dedicated to poor students in the mountains
I didn't receive a notice to see you off today
I don't know where it was held
I also did not see the leaders of the original unit
But I think I should come and see you off
Just represent a veteran of the provincial military district
I tell your relatives
Give me the Little Red Riding Hood you once wore
I'm going to put it on display in a museum
Let everyone who visits be moved by your spirits
Because you're not just an ambassador for Project Hope
You are still a veteran who came from the smoke of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea!
Donation of $3,000 from retirement
More than 10 million yuan of donations were raised
35 Hope Primary Schools were built
and then donated to more than 5,000 poor students
Your act of kindness touches the world
Your good deeds shine with the sun and the moon
Your voice will always be engraved in the hearts of the people!
