Wei-Chung Yang, 49, of Avon, beloved husband of Tsui-Min "Tracy" Hung, passed away unexpectedly, but peacefully, with family by his side on April 30, 2017. He was born in Taiwan and moved to the U.S. in 1992. He received Master's degrees from Wayne State University in Clinical Laboratory Science and the University of Minnesota in Health Informatics. He worked for the University of Minnesota as a member of a Medicare data advisory team. Wei most recently worked at Cigna as an informatics senior specialist managing IT projects. He was a valuable technical resource. In his 15 years at Cigna, his strong work ethic was appreciated by his co-workers. A loving family man, Wei was very proud of his son Tony, a freshman at Johns Hopkins University, and his daughter, Grace, who is a student at Avon High School. Wei's zeal for life was contagious. He had a great sense of humor and dreamed of becoming a comedian. When visiting his family in Taiwan, they would say that was the happiest time of the year. Wei enjoyed working in his yard and traveling. A great friend and a great man, he will be missed dearly. Wei is survived by his loving wife of 22 years, Tracy; his son Tony; his daughter Grace, his mother and three sisters who live in Taiwan, and many nieces and nephews.
