Our beloved father Mr. See Man Tam passed away peacefully in the morning of Oct. 15, 2020, at the age of 95, due to natural causes. He joins our beloved brothers Benny and Stephen who preceeded him.

He is survived by our mother Mrs. May Shiu Tam (of 70 years of marriage), his sister Wai Fong, his sons Tony, Albert, Kenny, Danny, as well as daughters in law Linda, Alice, Mandy, Susan, Pauline and Diana (Danny's long-time partner) while his legacy lives through us along with his 15 Grandchildren as well as 11 great grandchildren.

We mourn our loss, but find comfort in reminiscing fond memories of our father and his achievements that sustain us through this difficult time.

Born in the town of KaiPing, GuangDong, China and migrated to Hong Kong in the late 1940s, our father worked tirelessly and closely with our mother to raise their 6 boys. Reunited with our grandfather in 1970 when the whole family of 9 that included our grand mother, migrated to Canada, thanks to the generous sponsorship by our uncle Fred Hum and Aunt Sue, as our father continued his devotion and sacrifices for his family here in Toronto, demonstrating many fine qualities of his character in everything he did, whether it was all the sacrifices made in paving the way for his children and grandchildren to develop and thrive in Canada our homeland now, or treating others with respect and enthusiasm, or simply enjoying his blessings through a life style of simplicity and caring for others. The term "family gentleman" describes him most sincerely and appropriately.

We are holding a funeral service to be attended by family members only, in his honour, on Saturday Oct. 31, 2020 at Elgin Mills Funeral Home to commemorate him and to celebrate his life and achievements.

我們親愛的父親譚仕民先生於2020年10月15日上午和平地睡著逝世, 享年95. 他現與我們心愛的兄弟國恩和國亮重聚.

他留下我們的母親譚夫人(已婚70年), 愛妹惠芳，兒子國華，國光，國定，國禎及媳婦 Linda, Alice, Mandy, Susan, Pauline 和 Diana; 還有他的15個孫兒以及11個曾孫.

雖然這失喪令我們哀悼，但在回憶起父親的美好過去以及他的成就, 我們在這個艱難時期還可感受到安慰.

父親出生於中國廣東省開平市, 在1940年代後期移居香港. 孜孜不倦地與母親密切合作, 艱辛地撫養了6個男孩. 衷心多謝我們姨丈 譚榮阜先生及太太 (三大姨 Aunt Sue) 的慷慨支持, 1970年我們全家(包括我們祖母在內的九人)移民來加拿大與我們的祖父團聚. 無論是為了他的子孫後代在加拿大發展和繁榮，或尊重他人和熱情對待他人，或僅僅是享受簡單生活, 他做每件事中都能表現出他的清高品格, 多種優良的美德. “家庭紳士”可說是一個最恰當的詞來形容他.

紀念及慶祝他的一生和成就，我們於2020年10月31日（星期六) 在 Elgin Mills Funeral Home 舉行葬禮服務.
