In memory of

Kin Shing Yu 俞建成先生

November 24, 1950 -  June 15, 2024

俞建成先生於西暦2024年6月15日安詳離世,在人生的最後旅程中,一直有家人陪伴在側,享壽73歲。

俞建成先生於1950年11月24日出生於上海,年幼時隨父母移居香港,並定居當地,中學畢業後到台灣成功大學完成化學工程學士學位。

俞建成先生性格樂天積極,勤奮好學。在80年代,他開創自己的事業,即使面對工作或生活上的困難,也從不言倦,只會堅毅努力地面對。

在1995年,俞建成先生決定舉家移民到加拿大,安置好一家大小後,他便繼續回港當「太空人」。 那時候,他最喜歡的一句歌詞便是「又見雪飄過」,因為看到雪,便回到了家。

退休後,他除了弄孫為樂,閒時旅遊之外,更積極參與志願工作,直至入院前仍然每星期堅持到孟嘗「上班」,風雨不改。

俞建成先生一直是家中的支柱,作為長子,從小就擔起照顧三弟妹的責任。作為丈夫,雖不溫柔,但愛護有加。作為父親,盡心盡力,既嚴厲又風趣溫暖。作為祖父,他一改作風,一心當寶貝的玩伴。

英氣長存,歸真返璞,南柯夢裏, 望雲思親。


Kin-Shing Yu passed away peacefully on 15 June 2024 at the age of 73 after saying goodbye to his beloved family. He was husband of Helen Chu, father of Elena Yu and Elsie Yu, father-in-law of Jerry Chan and Jeremy Beutel, grandfather of Chloe Chan and Evan Chan, big brother of Jarvey Yu, Suk-Yee Yu, and Danny Yu, uncle of many nieces and nephews.
Kin was born on 24 November 1950 in Shanghai and moved to Hong Kong with his parents at a young age. When he was a young child, he focused on play instead of school. He often joked that he did not understand a word at school, until one day, everything suddenly “clicked”. He went to Taiwan to earn a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering at National Cheng Kung University.
Kin was optimistic, intelligent, and hard-working. In the face of challenges, he never complained and always strived to solve the issue. In the mid-1980s, he started his own company to support his then young family.
In 1995, Kin and his family immigrated to the other side of the world to Canada and settled in Calgary, Alberta to give their daughters a better future. As a good father and husband, he ensured that his family was settled in and then travelled back and forth to Hong Kong to continue working and supporting his family. It was a challenging time for him, but his commitment and love for his family helped him through it.
After he retired, he and his wife moved to Toronto to be closer to the grandchildren. When the grandchildren were young, he spent much time entertaining them, and only took time off to vacation when he was sure the grandchildren had someone to care for them.
Kin was a people-person and loved to help people. Even at his old age, he would volunteer to mow the lawn for the neighbors. He enjoyed volunteering in the community until his health declined.
His family was his life, whether as a son, a brother, a husband, a father, or a grandfather. Regardless of the roles, he offered his best to care for his family. As the eldest of the family, he always took care of his siblings. As a husband, he took care of his wife even though he was never to be considered a romantic man. As a father, he was strict yet humorous. His proudest achievement was that his daughters both grew up to be responsible and good people who contributed to society. As a grandfather, he spent all his energy entertaining and caring for the grandchildren.
