    Mrs. Eu is a total gem of a person. She was our Regional Director twice in Texas region back in the mid and late 1980’s. She was (is) feisty and faithful, a very warm heart. She is now with her husband President Eu in the spiritual world. I have the fondest memories, appreciation, and love for Mrs. Eu. God bless you, dear sister — you’ve enriched so many lives with your love, faith, and example, and your tireless devotion to the Divine Principle and our True Parents. Soar in the Heavens!

    Sorry to hear about Mrs Eu’s passing. She was one tough lady. I remember not having much time for her in a visit to Albany, New York as I was so busy getting ready for some campaign. I came late to her talk but she really respected the fact that I just plowed on with my work until it was completed. She always said Hi to me in NYC at events in the following years. I learned a lot about “holding your own” with leadership from her. Womensei….I’d like to meet you sometime!

    Thank you for the tremendous work you did during your physical life, dear Mrs Eu. I remember how you taught us how to teach DP from your new manual at the 40 day wives workshop in Feb/March 2004. I also met your husband in 1969, when he accompanied True Parents on their world tour. He was responsible for recording everything at that time. Mrs Eu, you will be remembered for a long time and I look forward to meeting up with you again when I go to my eternal home in the future. Many blessings and love to you and your family.

    Dear big sister,
    I will truly miss your advice and smile. I am reminded of how “the Blessing” can sometimes be very difficult to endure and prevail. During these times, God almighty understands and sends messages of encouragement to us, I believe. One messenger for me was you… Mrs. Gil Ja Sa Eu.
    Thank you.

    To our beloved members, I want to testify that, Mrs. Gil Sa Ja Eu exemplified True Parent’s love for me as their representative.

    Mrs. Eu arrived in my life during some of my early struggles and difficulties. She brought, shared deep guidance, personal insight, and advice at crucial times.

    One funny story with her happened about 1980 at Ohio State University.

    After class, I arrived back at the C.A.R.P center to smell, what seemed like marijuana all over the house and in the neighborhood. Shortly afterwards, the city police arrived. Somehow, they had tracked down the smell to our center and came to investigate. We were worried that they might make an issue out of this.
    Mrs. Eu was visiting us and doing a”moxa treatment” in the back.

    When the police went around back, this small asian woman (in white) came out and greeted them looking like an angel. Simply, they said, “oh, its okay”and left. We were surprised because we didn’t say anything. She just said in broken english, “Moxa”. Until this day, I don’t know what happened then.

    She visited Washington DC last year, I felt that she might transition soon and spent some very good time with her. It meant a great deal to me to feel her spirit and reminiscence about her special care for all of us as an IW. Serving and caring always.

    I don’t know, if many members have such a person in their life of faith these days, its important to have at least one. I did and she meant a great deal to my journey.

    Thank you, big sister! Thank you, Heavenly Parent for loving me so much to send her to help. It shall never be forgotten!
