Once settled in Hong Kong, the family expanded with four more sisters, Ling, Alice, May and Peggy.

He first met Winnie, his wife, in 1977, where he was a garment manufacturer, and she represented an exporting firm. After 10 years together, they finally decided to get married in 1987 and had two children, Erica and Doug.

After immigrating to Toronto in 1983, he supported the family business, Tai Cheong Supermarket. He then went on to start his career at Clearwater Seafood in 2000, where he achieved incredible success and gained many accolades. During his 20-year tenure, he was the happiest and most proud. Allan decided to retire at the end of March 2020 to focus on his health and was looking forward to retirement life.

He is survived by his wife and two children.
