Choo King (John) Wong passed away peacefully on November 9, 2022, at the age of 67 after a long struggle with Multiple System Atrophy.

He was born in Raub, Pahang, Malaysia as the fourth child of six siblings, and the youngest son to Wong Kit Kim and Yap Ah Ngan. He showed his love of cooking early, and opened a noodle stall in his teenage years. He spent the rest of his life in the restaurant industry (with a short stint dabbling in blinds).

He left Malaysia to go to Canada at age 23 where he met his future wife when he worked at her brothers’ store. He stole her heart, and they started a family in Calgary and Toronto.

He was a man of many talents, who was great with words, quick-witted and skilled with his hands. His hobbies included singing, hunting for bargains (especially home hardware), gardening (one finally succeeded in getting the tangerine trees to bloom after killing many of its brethren), but being a cook was his first love and much appreciated by all around him. He also enjoyed biking when he had time and had explored much of the Don Valley River Trail.

He enjoyed travelling, especially going back to Malaysia to see his siblings and his many nephews and nieces. He had also seen much of Canada and had camped from Tofino in the West to Cape Breton in the East. He also insisted on doing it in style (the family was “glamping” with fans, heaters, radios, lights, rice cookers, multiple stoves and air beds at least twenty years before glamping became popular).

He is greatly missed by his family, but they are glad that he is at peace. He is survived by his wife, Sooi Chee {also known as Christine}, daughter Elaine and son Daniel, as well as siblings Ah Ying, Jimmy, Jenny, Catherine and Cindy.

先夫先父王祖庆因罹患多系统萎缩症病，于 2022 年 11 月 9 日在家中安详去世，享年 67 岁。

他出生于马来西亚彭亨州劳勿县，是六个兄弟姐妹之中的第四个孩子，亦是父母的幼子。他幼时就表现出对烹饪的热爱，在十几岁时就开了一家面档。在此以后,他便一直在餐饮业操劳（唯有一段短暂时间涉足百叶窗行业）。

他在23岁时离开了马来西亚，在加拿大找到了自己的出路。他在未来的舅兄的商店里工作时遇到了他未来的妻子。他们两情相悦，后在卡尔加里和多伦多建立了他们的小家庭。

他是一个多才多艺和爱好广泛的人。他巧言令色、心灵手巧，喜欢歌唱，购物（尤其是五金 物品），和园艺。厨艺是他的最爱，他的烹饪亦深受他人的赞赏。他其它的爱好包括骑自行车。

他非常喜欢旅行，尤其是返回马来西亚探望他的兄弟姐妹和侄子侄女们。他以最前卫的露营方式去游历加拿大大部分的地区，囊括西部的托菲诺和东部的布雷顿角。在舒适型露营流行20年之前，我们的家庭已经开始使用了风扇、加热器、收音机、电灯、电饭煲、电炉和气垫床。
