We would like to extend our heartfelt condolences on the passing of a wonderful family man. In the short time we have had to know him, we will never forget the love he had for his family, and especially his granddaughter Victoria. His face would light up whenever she was near, and she equally loved her YeeYee. He was such a kind hearted person who will be greatly missed, but his legacy will continue to live on with the beautiful family he has left behind.

May he rest in peace,

Josh, Ashley, Mateo and Melina.

Chung-Wei Ho was born on October 27, 1942 in Sichuan province of China. In 1949, his family retreated with army and moved to Taiwan to escape the communist China. He excelled in primary school and with exceptional exam result, he was honored with being admitted to a provincially run middle school; one of only three student out of the three graduating classes from his school that year. During his high school years, Chung-Wei was excelled in math and science; however, he only did well in arts and music. Which resulted in his need to attend summer school to turn his good grades into exceptional grades for the subject of arts and music.
Following his time in middle school, Chung-Wei was accepted to provincial high school to become an electrician. While in trade school, he was accepted into Taiwanese Air Force’s Officers College in 1961. In 1963 he was one of the 16 officers which graduated from his the original class of 48 students. He spent the next 17 years serving his country as a pilot where he earned various awards before taking an early retirement in September of 1980.
After leaving the Air Force, Chung-Wei and his family immigrated to Paraguay, where he started a small gift shop. Looking for better life and better future for his family, he once again took the family and immigrated to Canada in August of 1980. He opened a small jeweler store in Canada. With the down turn in Canada’s economy at the time he made the difficult decision to go to Guatemala by himself and started a watch assembly and importing business. Chung-Wei took comfort in knowing he was able to provide for his family and that they are taken care of. In 2011, he returned to Canada and retired due to health issues. His final years where spend mostly with his wife, children and grandchild.

父親何中威於1942年農曆10月27日出生在中國四川酉楊。 1949年，父親七歲，爺爺帶著ㄧ家大小從大陸逃難到台灣。由宜蘭頭城，再到花蓮吉安鄉定居下來。小學就讀於南華國小，成績在班上算是前幾名。畢業後考入省立花蓮中學，當時南華國小畢業的有三班，只有三個人考上省中，父親就是其中之一。但進入初中後，在班上已不是前段生。數理成績還好，但是音樂及美術每年卻要補考，信心漸失。初中畢業後，考入省立花工電工科。高三時，教官說可以保送三軍官校，這時父親就報名了空軍官校。體檢、筆試、數科一切順利。在1961年8月底到崗山空軍官校接受飛行訓練。在全班48個同學中只畢業16個，父親幸運的畢業。1963年9月畢業後成功的當上飛行員，開始了17年的軍旅生涯。在軍中也得了無數勳獎章。在1980年9月，為了兒女的前途，提前退休，帶著一家大小移民到巴拉圭。在那裡開了一個小禮品店。為了他的家人與孩子能有更好的未來，在1988年8月再次移民到加拿大，開了一間小珠寶店。當時經濟不景氣，所以在1993年，他做了艱難的決定，暫時離開家人，獨自到瓜地馬拉創業。在當地做手錶裝拼和進出口業務，才得保全家溫保。在2011因身不適回到加拿大，退休在家。
