Lots of memories of yee-cheung (husband of aunt) – first met him at his wedding with Aunt Amy. Always soft-spoken, always agreeable to kids.

My sincere condolences to the family, and deepest sadness the leave of my brother in law. I am always proud of this honest family from what I heard about them from near and far. It is a great lost of my brother in law however, he had done his valuable part as a husband and father and enjoyed a longevity in a great peaceful country. My heart is always with them wherever I am, and without doubt to support as always. I also encourage my sister and David to move on and take care.

I will always remember Yee-Cheung as having a kind smile that lit up his whole face. It is always hard to lose someone no matter the circumstances and even harder that we can’t all be together to say goodbye. Yee-Po (great aunt Amy), I learned that you were a huge comfort to Yee-Cheung for a long time and I hope you can take comfort that you were always there for him. We are keeping you and David in our prayers.

Lots of memory with Yee- Cheung especially after he moved to Canada with his family in 90s. A man hardly complained to anything. He was always full of smile with welcoming language when meeting. I send my deepest condolences to my Aunt and David during these challenging times. Rested in peace Yee-Cheung.

Yee-Cheung was such a sweet and kind hearted man. I remember every time we saw him, he would hold my hands and cup it between his with the biggest smile. It is such a loss for not only our family but the world. My greatest condolences to Amy and David. Hope during these unprecedented times, we can come together spiritually to support one another. Lots of love.
