Sau Ho Lee

April 20, 2017
Sau Ho Lee passed away peacefully on April 20, 2017 at Toronto General Hospital in her 95th year surrounded by her family.
One of eight children, she was born Sau Ho Ngo on October 8, 1922 in Hoi Wan Lee, Kwongtung, China. She is survived by her brother Henry (Eva) Ngo and her children Maureen (Graham) , May (Ted ), Jim (Linda) , Fern (Gary) and Tom (Daisy). She was grandmother to Edward (Deborah) , Caitlin, Jennifer, Amanda, Kathleen, Adam, Patrick, Gillian, Emily, Alex, Justin and great grandmother to Lucien and Dylan.
Sau Ho married Wah On Lee (d 1989) in October 1937 in China and joined him in Canada in 1948. She raised five children all while assisting with various family businesses in the Toronto area. Despite many challenges, she raised successful children who have in turn raised their own families with the good values that she passed on to them.
Special thanks to Yong for her friendship and homecare over the last ten years. Thanks also to Richard for his longtime friendship and support.
She will be sorely missed by her extended family. The importance of family is her lasting legacy to all of us.
Until last November, she enjoyed relatively good health, maintained her independence and lived at home. We would like to thank Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto Western Hospital, Toronto General Hospital and the Rekai Centre for her care since that time.
Donations can be made to Toronto Western Hospital in her name in lieu of flowers.
