...A tribute to our Michelle - Peer Support Leader...


Our new Peer Support Leader, Michelle (Lai Na MO) was a really outstanding and hard-working volunteer to the Orientation Peer Support Program in Semester 2, 2004.

Michelle passed away on the weekend which was a stormy day with rain and wind. She collapsed on the way home near Mt Waverley which is the area that she lives.

She lightened all of the Peer Support Leaders' heart with her great smile and her jokes. Even though, some of us didn't really know her well but she is a great person to be with all the time.

She was born in Shanghai, China on 24th January, 1983. Later on, she and her family moved and lived in Hong Kong since September, 1984. Well, she really speaks very well of cantonese dialect. She can also speak mandarin dialect. Her English language also not bad.

She joined Deakin University in 2002 for her tertiary studies in the Faculty of Business and Law. She joined the Orientation Peer Support Program to help the new International Students just like herself. Michelle has beey a very diligent, responsible and generous to help people and her co-workers. She is a sun in our team and this is whom we will remember her always in our hearts and the house of Deakin International.

* Michelle, we will remember you always and you will surely live in our hearts. Nice knowing you and may you rest in peace.*
