今天是我人生第一次望彌撒,回到母校追思黃霑學長。
同場的名人不多,沒有照相機,沒有狗仔隊,只有霑學長生前的真摯學友,和我們一班少不更事的後輩師弟。不少老鬼竟然是昨天從外地趕回來的,他們箇中的情誼自是不言而喻。主持彌撒的神父Fr. Baptista,是霑學長當日出任Head Prefect時的副手。看著他念經時感觸得無法讀下去,我感到既是遙遠,卻又親切。
儀式後播放了學弟們訪問霑學長的片段,猶記得霑學長對著白敏慈神父說的一句話:「喇沙總會出一些聖人(指著白神父說),和一些壞人嘛(指著自己說)!」然後一個招牌的「哈哈哈哈」,不禁讓鴉雀無聲的禮堂爆出笑聲,真是「死霑叔逗笑活學友」,足與「死諸葛嚇走生仲達」媲美,哈哈哈哈。
自嘲,是一種幽默技巧,霑老鬼可謂得其英華。

【東方日報專訊】黃霑母校喇沙書院昨夜特別於學校禮堂舉行追思彌撒悼念霑叔,由霑叔同屆畢業的同學白敏慈神父主持,學生組成的歌詠團領唱聖詩及中文版校歌。雖然現場沒有唱出霑叔生前的經典名作,但儀式開始前,有學生於場外拉小提琴及大提琴奏出霑叔生前一系列經典的金曲如《滄海一聲笑》、《中國人》、《獅子山下》、《家變》、《親情》、《世間始終你好》及《明星》等,曲曲動人心弦,霑叔的兄弟及兒子亦有到場,但就未見霑叔現任太太Winnie出現。
據喇沙書院劉煒堅校長透露,今次除了追思彌撒外,更特別設有感恩祭,他透露曾翻查霑叔在校紀錄,大讚霑叔是個能文能武的優材生外,亦是現今學生的模範,當時霑叔更與白敏慈神父分別為學生會的正、副領袖。劉校長認為霑叔的成就乃喇沙書院的一份光榮,至於會否設立獎學金?劉校長坦言要跟霑叔的家人商量後才決定。
