人,最宝贵的是生命。命对于我们每个人只有一次。这仅有的一次生命应当怎样度过呢?每当回忆往事的时候,能够不为虚度年华而悔恨,也不应为碌碌无为而羞愧。 – 尼古拉 奥斯特洛夫斯基
“Man’s dearest possession is life. It is given to him but once, and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years, never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past; so live that, dying, he might say: all my life, all my strength were given to the finest cause in all the world──the fight for the Liberation of Mankind” ― Nikolai Ostrovsky
父亲梁拯生于1935年4月25日。1951年1月12日,时年15岁正在北京市工商中学上学的父亲投笔从戎参加了中国人民解放军,加入抗美援朝,保家卫国的行列。作为军人的父亲,英勇无畏,虽因年龄太小无法出征战场,但是作为北京总后勤油料部的运输车辆计划员,他发挥着自己的聪明才智,在往朝鲜前线押运战略物资中他首创了《X1型30T敞车运载53加仑空油桶320只装载法》提高了200%的运载量。爸爸转业后一番苦读经考试进入山西大学外语系俄罗斯语言文学专业学习。
大学毕业后爸爸成为了一名人民教师。作为教师的他和学生亦师亦友,爸爸在教学中投入了他全部的精力和热情,生动活泼的教学方式深得学生喜爱,许多他所教过的莘莘学子在各个领域都取得了优异的成就,真可谓桃李天下、芬芳满园。
十年文革浩劫,爸爸被打成黑帮,令热爱教育事业的他被迫离开讲台。但是爸爸不是被动无奈的接受命运的不公,而是全身心的投入在了新的事业中。几年时间里,爸爸自主研发了《9PL-D5000型自控电孵机》,《9PF-平立结合式机械化种鸡饲喂装置》以及中国首幢自主创新、研究安装的机械化种鸡舍。这个全长八十一米中间无立柱的鸡舍是当时的亚洲之冠!我的父亲也因他的这一系列成就获得了高级畜牧师的职称。
作为高级畜牧师的爸爸后来又编写了《学养鸡》三本手册,来帮助和辅导农民和畜牧业人员学习养鸡的知识。这三本手册目前被中国图书馆收藏。爸爸还创办了中国首份家禽报纸《鸡鸭鹅鹑鸽》;中国第一家狗公司—山西良真地羊(犬)公司;《中国神州爱犬乐园》;中国第一份犬科学刊物《神州犬业》杂志;中国第一本宠物杂志《宠物世界》。无数个中国第一,要做就做最好的,这一直是爸爸的人生信条!
爸爸是一个平凡的人,但是他却渡过了既坎坷却又精彩不平凡的一生!无论在什么样的境遇下,他都秉持着自己的信念,那就是:勇往直前,永不言败,拼搏奋进,创出新路,创出自己的人生!爸爸最喜欢的人生格言是苏联小说《钢铁是怎样炼成的》里面的一段话:“人最宝贵的东西是生命,生命属于人只有一次。一个人的生命是应当这样度过的:当他回首往事的时候,他不会因为虚度年华而悔恨,也不会因为碌碌无为而羞耻;这样,在临死的时候他就能够说:‘我整个的生命和全部的精力,都已献给这世界上最壮丽的事业—为人类的解放而斗争!’” 这就是父亲这一代人的情怀!
爸爸一生中曾遭遇过许多不公正的待遇,也有过诸多的委屈,家人朋友也常常会安慰劝解他,但他却始终无法真正释怀。而爸爸是有福的,在2002年爸爸信主归入神的家中。此后爸爸开始变得喜乐满足!因为他知道,我们在地上所追逐的无论是名和利乃至我们的身体都是会朽坏的,而唯有那存在天上的才是永恒不变的!追求那永恒的生命才是我们真正的福分!
而今,爸爸打过了那美好的仗,跑尽了当跑的路,放下了世间的劳苦重担,于2020年10月26日平静安详的安息主怀!
亲爱的爸爸,您安息吧!将来我们天家再见!

雷咏棠 亲爱的雅枫姐,
初识梁叔,我眼中的他,睿智、聪明、开朗、超前、有远见,退休后还有干一番事业的胸怀和魄力让我佩服不已;
再识梁叔,我心中的他,真诚、耿直、爱憎分明、嫉恶如仇,永远有着一股不服输、与时俱进的劲头让我为他骄傲;
此刻,定格在我记忆深处的梁叔是慈爱的、善良的、温暖的、宽厚的、风趣的、幽默的、调皮而可爱的一位长者、一位智者、一位把我当二女儿的亲爱的梁叔!
此刻,纵有千言万语也无法表达对梁叔的感恩之情、思念之情。
梁叔虽然暂别了我们,但他的谆谆教导、他对我们的爱、他的音容笑貌,时时刻刻会萦绕在我们身边。他老人家依然和我们在一起。
亲爱的雅枫姐,失去父亲的痛,妹妹感同身受。路途迢迢,疫情凶猛,妹妹无法前往陪伴你,但是你不孤单,在以后的日子里,我们姐妹会一如继往地彼此相爱、彼此扶持、彼此鼓励。我们因有天父的爱而内心无惧无忧,我们更因有天父的恩典而喜乐平安。
雅枫姐,请节哀!请接受妹妹遥远的拥抱!
爱你的雷妹妹

Maria Au Dear Yafeng,
Our LORD knows your heart is aching. May HE hold you close to HIS heart and comfort you tenderly.
Sincerest Sympathy for you and your family during this difficult time!
In HIS love,

Dear Yafeng,
We were both very sorry to miss the memorial service for your father. The best of fathers always serves as a sort of rock in your life, and we hope that part of that rock supports and comforts you the rest of your days. While your loss must certainly be difficult, take some consolation in the wonderful gift that you have had in this father for so many years, and for the strong character that has been his legacy to you.
We would wish you strength and courage to face your future, but know well that you already have them in abundance, and that has been your father’s gift to you.
寄上我們全家最深沉哀悼與懷念! 梁叔叔安息吧!
Lawrence, Ying 莹 ,甜甜 至上
