In Loving Memory of Sui Ching Kwan-Wong 黄夫人関瑞貞

It is with profound sadness that I announce the peaceful passing of my beloved mother, Sui Ching Kwan-Wong on January 9, 2025 at Chester Village, Scarborough at the age of 94. Born in Canton China, on the 10th day of the 8th month in 1930 (Lunar calendar). She was the youngest of 3 siblings. In 1953, she left mainland China with her family to start a new chapter in Hong Kong. Later, in 1990, she immigrated to Canada with my Dad to be united with my family.

In 2016, mom bravely underwent a life saving heart surgery, motivated by her desire to spend more precious time with her family. Her remarkable recovery blessed her with over eight more years, during which she was delighted to have the chance in meeting her four great grandchildren.

Mom was a kind-hearted, hardworking and resilient woman who faced life’s challenges with unwavering strength. Despite language barrier, she found immense joy in spending time with her four cherished grandchildren, sharing her love through her cooking. Her delicious dishes and dim sum brought the family together and created countless fond memories over the years

Sui Ching Kwan-Wong will be deeply missed by her loving daughter Winnie So-Hing, her grandchildren William, Diane (Tony), Jeanine (Jonathan) and Mitch, as well as her great-grandchildren Jonah, Jasmine, Nico and Jade. She will also be lovingly remembered by her nieces Sandra, Denise, Linda, Mabel, Carol and nephew Kim, many grandnieces and grandnephews, and her two God daughters Karmania and Karina in Hong Kong.

The family extends heartfelt thanks to Dr. Birmingham and the dedicated staff of the Jade unit at Chester Village for their compassionate care over the years.

Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Pine Hills Funeral and Cemetery in Scarborough. A private family service will take place on January 18.

In our hearts forever, may she rest in peace.
