Chai Gen Lu, a long-time resident of Mississauga, passed away Friday, June 9th, 2017 at Trillium Hospital surrounded by family after a courageous and relentless battle with cancer.

Lu Chai Gen loved Chinese cuisine especially baked goods, socializing with people of a range of different backgrounds, playing cards, watching tv, reading the news and strolling around his neighbourhoods. While Chai Gen was not well versed in English, he greeted everyone he met with a smile "hello" and always thanked the kindness of strangers. He was always lighthearted and had a laughter that would light up the room.
