  1. We were blessed to have known Regina and her family for almost 5 years now. My daughter Kate and Regina started their school memories together in Kindergarten..There were 5 “Gal Pals” as we called them , and Regina was right there with them with a smile on her face..
    She was a fighter, just like her mom. Courageous, strong, and a true Princess.

    Rest in Peace sweet Regina, no more suffering now.

  2. Dearest Diana, Nick & Gabriel –

    There are no words… You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Regina will be forever in our hearts – what a wonderful, beautiful and brave soul!!!

    With much love,

    Jennifer & Andrea

    This message is for Nick Tan, Regina’s father. You have given all the love a father has to Regina, your daughter of a full life that would enjoy. By doing so, you became an example that all of us shall emulate in trial times.

    Best wishes.

  4. I never got to meet this little princess, though, I would have loved to. Through Diana’s blogs, Facebook updates, and online photos, I started to feel as if I knew Regina in person. Amazing, what a little girl with such wonderful personality can do to strangers!
    She will be missed all over the world, especially in China, Estonia and USA.
    I will keep Saare-Tan family in my prayers.
