+1 from me.

Chris is also my leader in IBM some time before, He is a helpful and
talkative man. I learn lots from him, he work so hard that I see he send
out email shortly before even he is ill in bed.

we never forget the contribution for the nova community, nova v3 api, nova
v2.1 api nova 2.1 micro version api.

I hot he will leave in peace and won’t be worry about the review duty in
heaven.
I will never forget his word when ending the scrum, “let talk it tomorrow,
CU”

Feel very sad. Just few weeks ago, I still saw him active on the community.
Really hard believe this happen such suddenly.

He was my leader in IBM and mentored me on the openstack community also,
offered lots of help without reservation, really
learn a lot from him.  We have phone call meeting every morning before, he
always sounds happy and enthusiastic even after
he got health problem.
May his soul rest in peace.

 It is my sad duty to inform the community that Chris Yeoh passed away this
 morning. Chris leaves behind a daughter Alyssa, aged 6, who I hope will
 remember Chris as the clever and caring person that I will remember him
 as. I haven’t had a chance to confirm with the family if they want flowers
 or a donation to a charity. As soon as I know those details I will reply
 to this email.


 Chris worked on open source for a very long time, with OpenStack being
 just the most recent in a long chain of contributions. He worked
 tirelessly on his contributions to Nova, including mentoring other
 developers. He was dedicated to the cause, with a strong vision of what
 OpenStack could become. He even named his cat after the project.


 Chris might be the only person to have ever sent an email to his coworkers
 explaining what his code review strategy would be after brain surgery. It
 takes phenomenal strength to carry on in the face of that kind of
 adversity, but somehow he did. Frankly, I think I would have just sat on
 the beach.


 Chris was also a contributor to the Linux Standards Base (LSB), where he
 helped improve the consistency and interoperability between Linux
 distributions. He ran the ‘Hackfest’ programming contests for a number of
 years at Australia’s open source conference -- linux.conf.au. He supported
 local Linux user groups in South Australia and Canberra, including
 involvement at installfests and speaking at local meetups. He competed in
 a programming challenge called Loki Hack, and beat out the world to win
 the event[1].


 Alyssa’s memories of her dad need to last her a long time, so we’ve
 decided to try and collect some fond memories of Chris to help her along
 the way. If you feel comfortable doing so, please contribute a memory or
 two at
 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kX-ePqAO7Cuudppwqz1cqgBXAsJx27GkdM-eCZ0c1V8/viewform


 Chris was humble, helpful and honest. The OpenStack and broader Open
 Source communities are poorer for his passing.


 Michael
