In memory of

林羅鳳儀女士 Fung Yee Law Lam

February 3, 1932 -  October 30, 2022

林羅鳳儀女士在本年十月三十日中午十二點廿五分,因多個器官衰竭,於多倫多Sunnybrook 醫院與世長辭,享年九十歲。羅鳳儀之先夫林君偉先生已於2017年12月離世,他們有三個女兒:可蕙、芷蕙和敏蕙。

羅鳳儀為羅福銓與黎小碧之長女, 一九三二年二月三日生於廣東省東莞縣。羅鳳儀有弟妹五人。羅鳳儀童年居於東莞及香港,甜苦兼備,既得父母呵護,亦經歷不少苦難,包括第二次世界大戰,以及幾乎致命的危疾。

她十八歲時,幸能考入東華醫院轄下的護士學校,畢業後任職註冊護士,多年來盡忠職守,服務社區、病人、同事,直至一九八八年退休,退休前任職於衛生署轄下的西營盤皮膚科診所。

羅鳳儀為人和靄可親,富同情心,經常關心四周的人;無論貧富貴賤,她都一視同仁,都同樣尊重、同樣待之以禮。不少病人、同事,因此成為她的終生摯友。

羅鳳儀與先夫共偕連理五十六年,育有三名女兒,四名外孫兒女。羅鳳儀極其孝順,欣然親自照顧父母及翁姑,無微不至。令德懿行,使人欽敬。

羅鳳儀與先夫熱愛旅遊,曾遍遊多國名山大川。八八年退休後,轉成「亞洲雪鳥」,二十多年來,每逢冬季飛返香港避寒。羅鳳儀晚年奉信基督教,並於二零零三年受洗。

羅鳳儀喪禮定於十一月十三日在約克墳場殯儀中心舉行。

Fung Yee Law Lam, 90, passed away on Sunday October 30, 2022 at 12:25pm at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, Toronto due to multi-organ failure. She was preceded by the passing of her beloved husband, Kwan Wai Lam, and left her daughters, Ho Wai, Winnie, and Lisa.

She was born on February 3, 1932 in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, China to Mr. Henry Fook Tsuen Law and Mme. Siu Bik Lai. She was the eldest of six children, growing up in Dongguan and Hong Kong. Her upbringing was bittersweet. Though beloved by her parents, she fought to survive World War II and a near-death sickness.

Later, it was a stroke of luck that she got accepted into the Tung Wah Hospital Nursing School at the age of 18. She remained dedicated to her patients, colleagues, and community throughout her long service as a registered nurse until her retirement in 1988 from the Sai Ying Pun Dermatological Clinic, Department of Health in Hong Kong.

Compassionate, patient, and caring, she respected everyone as a fellow human, no matter rich or poor, regal or common. That was why many of her patients and colleagues became her lifelong friends.

She celebrated 56 years of marriage with her late husband, and had three daughters, two grandsons and two granddaughters. She was filial to her parents and parents-in-law, taking good care of their health and well-being. Her children praise her for how she fully embraced who they were, even when it challenged her comfort zone.

She shared her husband’s love for world travel. After retiring in 1988, she and her husband became Asian snowbirds, migrating seasonally between Hong Kong and Toronto until 2015. She became a member of the Christian faith and was baptized in 2003.

A service will be held on Sunday, November 13, 2022, at York Cemetery and Funeral Centre.

大姑媽 has always been a wonderful 長輩 to me. I must confess that as a kid, i only knew that she was good at cooking and mahjong :) Only after i went to study in Canada did I appreciate her strong intellect and caring heart. She shared with me a lot about the Law family history, her own upbringing and philosophy in raising children. At the same time, I found her very willing to listen and give advice to my youth problems. I am forever indebted to her for enriching my university years and providing me a warm home in Toronto…

I continued to be close to 大姑媽 after marriage. My wife Wynnie got along with her really well and they would sometimes talk for hours on phone! I still vividly remember the laughter and long talk that we had with her and 大姑丈 during the jumbo crab dinner when we visited Canada a few years ago!!

It’s really sad for me to see 大姑媽 leaving us. I am sure however she will enjoy her eternal life together with 大姑丈. I know that her her spirit will always be with us.

大鳳姐是從媽媽肚內抱我出來的人,甚至我的名,她也有份改,原先爸爸改為寶珠,後來大鳳姐話珠珠聽唔好聽, 不如叫阿珊 ,真係多謝大鳳姐 ,從此就用上寶珊這個名字。

大鳳姐好受小朋友歡迎,我女兒曼姿,大概三,四歲的時候,一晚羅家團拜晚宴,曼姿同大鳳姐相處只有幾小時,曼姿就話要跟大鳳姨媽回家瞓,真令我哭笑不得。

大鳳姐係一個樂於助人的人,爸爸有糖尿病,都係大鳳姐介紹醫生,我知道羅家其他親戚,他們身體出現問題,都係找大鳳姐幫忙介紹醫生。

最後一次在2017 年,我們一家前往多倫多探望她, 雖然她洗腎 ,仍樂觀面對,她的人生令我仿效,永遠 懷念。

寶珊敬上

Knowing you, I imagine what a kind and wonderful mother and human being your mother was.

I am thinking about you. Please take good care.
