Dear members of the Toys Community,
This is a very sad day.
The owner of Sun Entertainment in San Francisco Chinatown, Kent Sun (a model builder), got into a horrible car accident earlier this week. The family van he was driving, carrying his wife and children, was hit by an illegal immigrant who ran a red light, without auto insurance.
It was reported in the news that Kent is currently in a coma, suffering from a broken neck. The nerves in his neck are all torn. The hospital is pretty much counting down to pulling the plug on him...

I remember Kent started his store about 20 years ago, it was a small shop back then, no bigger than a walk in closet. He sold mainly Japanese model cars and Gundams. The business then expanded to a bigger unit next door, selling Hong Kong movies, die cast car models, Gundams, and all sorts of awesome action figures.
Kent is the kind of guy that always greet his customers with a smile as they walk in, and he'd say, "慢慢睇 (take your time)." Even if you just hang around the store without buying anything, he would say "Ok bye bye" as you walk out. Never pushy. Toy shoppers in the city are going to miss him for sure.
Although I don't know his family personally (I just read the newspaper and TV media), I would like to get the word out that his wife and two children are currently accepting donations to get through tough times, anything helps. Thanks.:
