In memory of
何振倫先生 Chan Luan Ha
April 6, 1924 -
August 7, 2025
Chan Luan Ha (何振倫先生) passed away peacefully at the age of 101 on August 7, 2025, at North York General Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, surrounded by his entire family.
Born on April 6, 1924, in Canton, China, Mr. Ha experienced a childhood marked by resilience and responsibility. After losing his father at a young age, he was raised in China by his uncle and aunt, while his widowed mother lived in Vietnam. In his early twenties, he moved to Vietnam to care for her, beginning a lifelong devotion to family that defined his every choice.
Mr. Ha built a life as a merchant, running a business in Ben Tre with dedication and integrity. He married Dang Van Luu (劉黨雲), his beloved wife of several decades, with whom he shared an enduring partnership until her passing in 2001. Together they raised seven children, instilling in them the values of love, perseverance, and unity.
A man of great will and resourcefulness, Mr. Ha survived wartime upheavals in both China and Vietnam before bringing his family to Canada, where he built a multi-generational home filled with warmth and togetherness. Known for his sweet tooth—whether enjoying ice cream, making orange juice generously sweet for his grandchildren, or sharing Timbits—he delighted in simple pleasures. He found joy in building things, from swings in the backyard to a flourishing garden, and in embarking on adventures both big and small: riding the subway, visiting Chinatown, buying lottery tickets from “lucky” stations, and taking in the energy of parades and bustling streets.
Mr. Ha is survived by his seven children, nine grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren, all of whom were touched by his love, wisdom, and enduring spirit. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered for the strength, kindness, and joy he brought to the lives of those around him.
何振倫先生於2025年8月7日,在加拿大安大略省多倫多的北約克全科醫院,在家人齊聚身旁的溫暖陪伴下安詳辭世,享嵩壽一百零一歲。
何先生於1924年4月6日出生於中國廣東。幼年喪父,由叔父母撫養長大,而母親則在越南獨力生活。二十歲時,他毅然回到越南照顧母親,從此展開了以家人為重的一生。
何先生早年從商,在越南檳椥經營生意,勤懇踏實,建立起穩固的生活。他與摯愛的劉黨雲女士結為連理,鹣鲽情深數十載,直至2001年妻子辭世。兩人育有七名子女,並以愛心、堅毅與團結的價值觀教養子孫。
他在中國和越南都經歷了戰爭動盪,其後帶著家人移居加拿大,建立了一個跨越三代的溫暖家園。他酷愛甜食—無論是享用雪糕、為兒孫特別調製極甜的橙汁,還是分享Timbits小甜圈——樂於與人同享生活中簡單的快樂。他喜歡動手打造生活中的小事,從後院搭建鞦韆到種植滿園花草;也熱衷於日常的小探險:乘地鐵、逛唐人街、到「幸運」投注站買彩票、參加熱鬧的遊行,體驗人群與熱鬧的氣氛。
何先生膝下兒孫滿堂,留下七名子女、九名孫子女、六名曾孫,皆受其慈愛及充滿智慧的精神所滋養。親朋摯愛將永遠懷念他,感念他一生的堅韌、善良與喜樂。
