Role in the Community (corpus-linked, 2026-09-14)

Our own story corpus holds three first-person records by/with Lin and his wife 詹正玉 — these outrank the press-kit profile as primary material:

  • 2018-10-24 — book-launch/life-story record: [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/129-the-life-stories-of-dr-mrs-ching-k-lin|TAH #129, The Life Stories of Dr. & Mrs. Ching K Lin 挑戰與感恩：我們的人生路]] (林清貴詹正玉夫婦).

Together with the encyclopedia records ([[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ota-248|TAH #248 夫妻合傳]], [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/whos-who-886-ching-k-lin|TAH Who’s Who #886]]) this shows a decades-long pattern of community self-documentation matching his ITPC/Evergreen-class teaching record above.
