In Loving Memory of
Wen Biao Liu 刘文彪
November 1, 1962 – July 18, 2026

With heavy hearts, we announce the unexpected passing of our beloved Wen Biao Liu 刘文彪 on July 18, 2026, in Ontario, Canada, at the age of 63.

Born in Hebei, China, on November 1, 1962, Wen Biao was a devoted husband to Hong Lei and a loving father of Tiange “Tianna” Liu and Yiwei Shen. He will be remembered for his strength, sincerity, warm smile, and unwavering devotion to his family.

Wen Biao graduated from Shandong University with a degree in Chinese Literature, and fulfilled a career in Beijing as journalist and editor at China Sports Daily. His work reflected his lifelong love of adventure, sports, and the outdoors.

In his youth, he was an intellectual and also a consummate sportsman. As a journalist, he climbed with China's national mountaineering team on expeditions. He summited highest peaks in North America - Mount McKinley and South America - Aconcagua, as well as many mountains in Asia. He wrote a novel that drew inspiration from his mountain climbing experience. He also spent three full months hiking the length of the Great Wall of China. That was Wenbiao: brave, unwilling to settle, always reaching for something further.

In 1996, at 34, Wen Biao came to Canada, leaving behind an established career to begin life again in a new and unfamiliar country. He arrived with almost no knowledge of English and began again his education and career in a different field. Through courage, determination, and perseverance, he rebuilt his life and established a successful career as a Network Administrator at CDS Global, now known as KCK Global, where he worked with dedication until retiring at the age of 58.

Retirement marked the beginning of another meaningful chapter of his life. He devoted himself fully to his family and home, cherishing every moment spent with those he loved. He was a deeply responsible husband and father who always placed his wife's wishes before his own and made the happiness and well-being of his daughters his highest priority. No matter what challenges life placed before him, he never complained. Instead, he quietly carried every burden himself, always asking what he could do to make life easier for the people he loved.

Wen Biao embraced life with confidence, pride, and an adventurous spirit. He loved golf, fishing, travelling, gardening, carpentry, and spending time in nature. The outdoors was where he truly came alive. Beneath his strong and confident exterior was a very gentle and kind heart. He faced every chapter of life with courage, optimism, and resilience, never allowing hardship to define who he was.

Wen Biao was a person with very high standards for himself. He had no patience for pretense or convention, and never once compromised what he believed in just to fit in. He knew himself and had confidence in his beliefs. But through the years of his life in Canada, especially in his battle with lung cancer, he learned patience and acceptance. He bravely faced his own mortality and came out the other side fully recovered and with a deep appreciation for his life.

He strove to be productive and to care for his family every day: he cooked most meals for his family and undertook many woodworking projects for his house. But he also had a deep love for the serenity and relaxation of home. He loved to spend his time tending the house and the garden which he took great care for.

As his health and physical condition were improving more and more after recovery from cancer, the outdoors again became a great joy. Even until the moment of his death, he had a zest for life. His death was a great accident and tragedy, but Wen Biao understood and appreciated his mortality. To him, every day was a great gift. He would not want us to mourn for his death but to celebrate the life he had.

Wen Biao's legacy is the love and security he gave to his family. He was our strength, our protector, and the person we could always depend on. Although his passing was sudden and far too soon, the love he gave us will remain with us for the rest of our lives.
He will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.


深切缅怀 刘文彪先生
1962年11月1 日 — 2026年7月18日

怀着无比沉痛的心情，我们悼念我们深爱的丈夫、父亲——刘文彪先生。

刘文彪先生于1962年11月1 日出生于中国河北，2026年7月18日在加拿大安大略省与世长辞，享年63岁。他身后留下深爱他的妻子雷虹，以及两个深爱着他的女儿 刘天格，沈奕炜。作为丈夫、父亲，他用一生诠释了责任、担当与无私的爱
文彪的一生，是一段不断追寻梦想、不断迎接挑战、不断奉献家庭的人生。

他毕业于山东大学中文系，之后在《中国体育报》担任记者和编辑。那些年，他把对生活和大自然的热爱活成了真正的冒险——他随国家登山队登顶北美最高峰麦金利峰（McKinley）和南美最高峰阿空加瓜山（Aconcagua），还曾用整整三个月的时间徒步长城，从嘉峪关到山海关，这些经历里的他，正是我们认识和深爱着的那个人：勇敢，不服输，永远想去看看更远的地方。

1996年，他来到加拿大，离开了熟悉的事业和生活，从学习英文字母重新开始，他一步一步建立起新的事业，成为 CDS Global (现 KCK Global) 的网络管理员，并在那里兢兢业业工作，直到58岁退休。

他从不随波逐流，一直忠于自己内心真正相信的东西。退休之后，他终于有更多时间做他真正喜欢的事, 高尔夫、钓鱼、旅行、园艺、木工，都是他热爱的兴趣。置身于山水之间、阳光之下，冰雪之中，都是他最快乐、最放松的时候。

他是一个把家人放在第一位的人，他尊重妻子的想法，照顾女儿们的需求。面对困难从不抱怨，也从不轻言放弃，而是默默承担起责任，总想着如何解决问题，让家人过得更轻松和幸福。

他待人温和、阳光、充满自信，有主见，也很清楚自己要什么。这一生，他从未停止挑战自己，也从未停止勇敢。
文彪留给我们的，不只是回忆，更是一份永远不会消失的爱。

他是我们家庭最坚实的依靠，是给予我们安全感的人，是那个无论遇到什么事情，我们都相信可以依靠的人。虽然他的离开来得如此突然，也如此令人心碎，但他的爱、力量和温暖，将伴随我们一生。
我们将永远怀念他，永远深爱他，也永远不会忘记他。
