Chin Hung Pang

Salt Lake City, UT-Our beloved husband and father, passed away peacefully on November 24, 2025, at the age of 92, surrounded by loving family members.

Chin Hung was born in 1934 to parents Hui Shen Pang and Xing Yan Li in Canton, China. He went to Hong Kong in the 50s with his uncle for better opportunities. In 1963, he worked as an onboard accountant for a shipping company for two years. Later he joined the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 1966 as a department accountant, then an administrator for the student housing department. He proudly retired after 32 years of service.

During his time as an accountant for the shipping company, he served on a merchant ship and travelled to many places like Italy, Spain, Egypt, and Southeast Asia.

He met his life partner Wai Yee Mak, and they married in 1975. Their marriage brought them two sons, Howard and David. Dad knew that he needed to provide for the family, and he did an excellent job caring for them.

After their retirement, Chin Hung and Wai Yee travelled once a year from Hong Kong to Salt Lake City to see their favorite sons and take fun trips around the Salt Lake Valley. They also enjoyed traveling to places like Yellowstone National Park, Disneyland, Las Vegas, and Grand Canyon National Park. He loved the retired life in Utah, and called it home.

Chin Hung was soft spoken, gentle, and detail-oriented. He took a very hands-on approach to life, was very organized.

He loved classical music and photography, and his favorite musician was Pavarotti.

He is survived by his wife and two sons.

Viewing services will be held Saturday, December 13th from 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm at Larkin Mortuary Downtown 260 E South Temple Street, Salt Lake City UT 84111
