elevated 0678Z Obituary
elevated 0678Z My honey, Irene Hoi-Nin Yu, was born on January 2, 1945. It is with great sadness and disappointment that I have to announce her passing at Yee Hong Peter K Kwok Hospice, on September 9, 2021.
elevated 0678Z Irene graduated from Mary Knoll High School, and from Hong Kong University with a BA degree in 1967. Then she immigrated to Toronto in 1968. After we met each other and went frequently on dates, we got married on January 6, 1970. What great fortune for me! She had lots of interest in travelling, especially to Europe, so we cruised many times with our friends (e.g., Baltic Sea, Mediterranean, Caribbean, Yangtze River). We also did land tours throughout Eastern, Western, and Southern Europe.
elevated 0678Z Now that you have left us, I have this to say to you:
elevated 0678Z “Having a perfect wife is three generations’ kismet
elevated 0678Z Raising two successful children by far your merit
elevated 0678Z Heartfelt satisfaction by better half’s side
elevated 0678Z Love stronger than gold never wavers like tide
elevated 0678Z When my time comes I will be again by your side
elevated 0678Z As time goes on my love for you will never subside
elevated 0678Z So honey, wish you go comfortably and rest in peace
elevated 0678Z Just don’t forget my honey kiss.”
