The wake was held at Universal Funeral Parlour and at the entrance was a memorial photobook which Felix and his daughter, actress Adrian Wong, had put together.

In it were photos of the family, Kit Wah performing, as well as a touching letter Felix penned to his wife about his regrets and some of their unforgettable moments. “I regret not be able to retire and travel the world with you. I regret not being to give you lifelong happiness and good health. I regret not being able to hold your hand and live to a ripe old age with you. But marrying you is my biggest success and my proudest moment.”

He added: “My dear wife, I will never forget how you were like when we first met — bubbly and cute. I will never forget how you were like when we were dating — always smiling and coquettish. I will always remember all that you have taught me, to be polite and responsible. It’s a pity we cannot live to a ripe old age together. Don’t worry about this old man. I will be courageous and carry on living my remaining life with your inextinguishable spirit. I hope to reunite with you in the future, turn into a pair of love birds, and enjoy the remaining world together. Don’t cry, love you always.”

They were greeted with a media scrum when their vehicle pulled up at the hall and the situation was so chaotic that staff had to protect them from reporters, who were desperate to get photos of the couple, who are almost never seen in public together.
