Yau Shing Kwan
Listed in Memorials
A resilient man with a strong work ethic, passed away after a difficult battle with cancer on March 9, 2024.
He was 79 years old. Yau Shing was born on April 25, 1945 and raised in Hong Kong amidst the bustling streets.
However, determined to seek a brighter future, he immigrated to Toronto, Canada in search of a better life.
Shortly after immigrating to Canada, he married Lukin in 1976 who gave birth to their son in 1977.
In a short period of time, after arriving in Canada, Yau Shing had also landed a job as a mechanic at a Swedish based industrial Air Compressor manufacturer operating in Canada. Through hard work and sheer determination, Yau Shing steadily laid the foundation to build a life for himself and his family in Canada, eventually purchasing a home, and raising their son.
His strong work ethic, coupled with his kindness and generosity, endeared him to colleagues, friends, and neighbors alike. As a determined individual, Yau Shing and his wife went on to become business owners of a bakery.
A loving husband, father, and grandfather, he always enjoyed the simple things in life. He never turned down the opportunity to help his son and grandchildren with whatever they needed.
Yau Shing is survived by his loving wife, son, and two grandchildren who will carry his legacy forward.
Though he may be gone, his hard working and kind spirit will continue to guide and inspire his son and grandchildren. Rest in peace, Yau Shing. We love you.
