Choy Chan Obituary
Since grand father passed away when Dad was young, he assumed the responsibility of looking after his mother and siblings. The family had a fabric store, and Dad took over the family business. In May 1952, Dad married Mom, Fung Lin Tam. At the age of 52, Dad retired from business and joined his children who are in Vancouver. Dad was greatly loved by his wife Fung Lin, his three children, Ivy Wai Ling, Roland Chu Kwan, and Ronald Chu Leung and four grand children, Wendy, Derek, Vincent, and Jackie, and great granddaughter, Lindsay. Dad was a gentle, kind and generous man. He will be greatly missed by his family.
