Farewell Kian

It is with great sadness that we pay our respects to Kian but we would also like to celebrate the great times that we individually experienced with him. Kian has been an Orion Health family member for nearly 8 years and has played an instrumental role in NZ PSG's success. His departure will be felt greatly by many staff, particularly the New Zealand team, and customers. We send our condolences to Kian's family and friends.

Memories

You will be missed

Akhil Apr 09, 2012

I will always remember Kian's big wonderful smile and warm nature. His smile and warm nature were extremely infectious and one could not help but walk away happy after any interaction with him. I only got to work with Kian on the odd occasion but it was always a pleasure catching up with him over lunch, toastmaster or just randomly bumping into him at work.

Kian you will be highly missed. Rest in peace my friend.

Gone, but not forgotten

Aaron Chai Apr 06, 2012

Kian and I joined Orion Health on the same day, on Monday 27th September, 2004. Back then, he was already an experienced hot-shot consultant while I was nervously trying to make my way through my first real IT job. We initlaly started in the same team, though throughout our time in Orion Health we didn't really work together that much. But despite that, we still managed to build a friendship from that first day, and I have some endearing memories to go with it. Such as: our first induction into Orion Health, the yummy lunches at Sri Pinang and the very dodgy Mercury Plaza, your hilarious icebreaker speech in Toastmasters which had me in fits, our evening runs around Mt Eden on cold nights, the time you thrashed me in badminton while giving me a few easy points, the Guitar Hero session on my last day in NZ where you couldn't hold a beat, and secretly bugging me for SMT help (which I'd always give) without going through my team lead first... there are many others, but they are too numerous to write here.

I know, from reading the memories posted here, that you have touched many lives, you have certainly touched mine. My life, and those in Orion Health, will be poorer without you around. Rest in peace, buddy. Gone but not forgotten.

Your legacy

Dave Apr 06, 2012

If the ultimate measure of our contribution to humanity during our lives is that we leave it in a better state than when we come in, then Kian has left a significant legacy.

It was my privilege to work alongside Kian 7 years ago when he led the Orion team to implement CIS at Canterbury DHB. As a result of his and his colleagues work, thousands of Canterbury people have received higher quality healthcare.

Kian inspired me with his energy and positiveness when I was a customer and encouraged me to also join the Orion team.

Kian, you will be sorely missed, but your legacy lives on.

Rest in peace, my friend.

Proud Father

Kurt Apr 05, 2012

Kian - I will always remember how proud you were when Alvin was born. I enjoyed sharing stories of what you had in store as a new dad and hearing the excitement in your voice as you experienced raising your son. Kian you have touched the hearts of many and your legacy lives on, rest in peace my friend.
