Kong (Johnny) Eng Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Mar. 1, 2017.
Kong (Johnny) Yuen Eng, 93, went home to be with our Lord and Savior on February 27, 2017. He was born in Canton, China on January 6, 1924. He was preceded in death by his youngest daughter, Peggy. He is survived by his loving and devoted wife of 65 years, Suey Ping (Rose) Eng. He is also survived by daughters Betty and her husband Chris Lim; Nancy and her husband Paul Liu; Mary Ann and her husband Larry Lee; Grandchildren: Esther and her husband Drew Schad, Shari and her husband Faheem Ali, Matthew Lim and his wife Tiffany, Jonathan and Michelle Lee, Kristina and Caroline Liu; and 5 great-granddaughters: Lydia, Kaitlyn, and Ellie Schad; Madeline and Isabella Lim.

In his younger years, Johnny enjoyed fishing and hunting. On those days, he escaped from working at his grocery store. After retirement, Johnny and Rose joined others bowling in a weekly senior league and enjoyed some traveling. He was a faithful member of Grace Chapel. Friends are invited to visitation with the family on Friday, March 10, from 5-8 pm. Funeral services will be held on Saturday at 1 pm. Both will be held at Forest Park Lawndale. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Grace Chapel, 1055 Bingle Road, Houston, TX 77055. The family appreciates your prayers and support.

Dear Eng family; Rose, Betty, Nancy and Mary Ann,
Though I've only known you a short while, there was an immediate bond. Mr. Eng was always so pleasant and smiled all the time and always so polite to everyone. We've been through similar pain at the same time and I truly believe that God has a way of connecting people. My love and prayers are with you and know that I will always remember your wonderful family. May Mr. Eng Rest In Peace.
