  • His FAPA presidency documented in the movement record has a matching chapter file: 台灣人公共事務會紐約州中哈德遜分會 — see FAPA (bibliographic record; corroborates the FAPA-Hudson Chapter president role in the employment table).
  • Note: 歐陽美麗, named as an early member of the 輕鬆生活座談會 in 劉天良’s memoir (2016), shares the surname but is a different person (South Bay, not Hudson Valley) — no merge.
