A celebration of Mo Ling’s life will be held on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, at 12:30 PM at the Elgin Mills Funeral Centre. A funeral reception will follow at Fancy Chinese Cuisine after the funeral service and cremation witnessing.

Mo Ling’s family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the caregivers from Yee Hong Hospice for their compassion and support during her final days.

Mo Ling will be remembered for her unwavering love, determination in life, and the significant impact she made on many lives. She will be deeply missed but forever cherished in our hearts.

Mo Ling will be deeply missed.

Mo Ling was always a beacon of joy and positivity. Her smile and laughter brought happiness to all those around her. Even in her later years, she remained incredibly active and independent - truly an inspiration to her generation.

At 94 years old, Mo Ling lived a long and fulfilling life, surrounded by her loving family. Though she has passed on, may she now rest in eternal peace.

My deepest condolences to you and your family during this difficult time. Mo Ling's vibrant spirit and zest for life will not be forgotten.
