Network

  • |GSTPC — TAH Who’s Who — Pianist / accompanist, including the Faith, Hope, Love Chorale
  • Conference connection (deepen 2026-09-11): her accompanist work for the 南加州台灣人長老教會聯合會 chorale is corroborated by the vault’s own records of that body — |Southern California Taiwanese Presbyterian Conference and |its conference newsletter.
  • 2026-09-10 cross-check: GSTPC’s own vault source hub is |here; Merry Singers Women’s Chorus, Eunice Chou Vocal Studio, and 綠萍樂坊 have no vault pages yet, so they stay as plain text.

Deepen — 2026-09-14 (vault-only re-check)

All cited TAH records (#183, #357, Who’s Who) are already absorbed into the timeline and employment tables; every wikilink (GSTPC, the Southern California Taiwanese Presbyterian Conference and its newsletter) resolves to an existing vault page. Merry Singers Women’s Chorus, Eunice Chou Vocal Studio, 綠萍樂坊, and the Music Teacher Association of California still have no vault pages, so they remain plain text. No new vault facts this pass.
