Obituary of Yuet Ho Lee

September 25, 1934 – Dong Guan, China

November 5, 2023 – Calgary, Alberta

 

The life story of Mrs. Sum Yen Yuan

 

Ms. Yuet Ho Lee was born in Dongguan, Guangdong on September 25, 1934. She grew up in a poor rural area. At a very young age, she managed household chores and cared for both the old as well as young. That is indeed commendable.

 

In 1958, Ms. Lee came to Hong Kong and stayed with relatives. While working for Nanyang Cotton Mill, she met Mr. Sum Yen Yuan who worked in a bookstore. The two got married in 1963 and gave birth to one son, Samson, and three daughters, Aileen, Daisy, and Connie.

 

In 1994, the Yuans came to Canada as immigrants and settled down in Calgary where they came across the Gospels. Daisy, as well as brothers and sisters in Christ, brought the Bible and salvation to their attention.  For a very, very long time she remained aloof.  She was later traumatised by an accident.  After praying to God for peace upon the encouragement of her children and their spouses, she all of a sudden had an epiphany and decided to follow Christ.  She was baptised in 2015 and became a child of God.

 

In 2016, the Yuans moved into Cloving Living 頤景樓 in downtown Calgary to enjoy their golden years. She fell twice and suffered injuries in 2017. In the following year, she was admitted to Wing Kei Care Centre as a result of brain degeneration. During the 2020 epidemic, her conditions took a turn for the worse.  She could not even recognize her husband and during family visits, all she could do was to smile or nod.

 

Late last month Mrs. Yuan’s conditions deteriorated further, and she passed away peacefully on November 5. The Yuan family would like to take this opportunity to express their heartfelt thanks to the Wing Kei team for taking good care of Mrs. Yuan, enabling her to spend her final years in a safe and pleasant environment.

 

Throughout her life, Mrs. Yuan was hard-working, sincere, and thrifty.  She was caring, loving, and looked after her husband and children well. Now that she has left this earthly world, she will be missed sorely by her family, relatives, friends, and brothers and sisters in Christ.  She now lives in the house of the Lord, where we will see her again in future.

 

 

阮李月荷女士生平

 

李月荷女士,廣東東莞人,生於1934年9月25日。她在貧困的農村長大,自幼持家、照料老幼,難能可貴。

 

1958年李女士來港,寄居在親戚家中,進入南洋紗廠工作後認識在書店任職的阮森炎先生。兩人在1963年結婚,婚後生育一男三女。

 

1994年阮氏夫婦移民,在加拿大的卡加里市定居後開始與福音有接觸。二女棣思及教會的弟兄姊妹向李女士講解聖經、救恩,惟她歷久不為所動。隨後一次意外令她極度震驚,兒媳鼓勵她求神賜予平安。禱告後她頓有所悟,決志信主並在2015年接受洗禮,加入教會成為神的兒女,願意一生跟隨耶穌。

 

2016年阮氏夫婦入住頤景樓,安享晚年的黃金歲月。2017年李女士一年內兩次摔跤受傷,翌年因腦退化入住榮基護理中心。2020年疫情期間,她腦退化情況日益嚴重,後期家人探望她時她只會點頭、微笑,即使丈夫及兒子都不能辨認。

 

2023年10月下旬,李女士腦退化病況惡化,於11月5日安息主懷。在此阮氏家人特意多謝榮基醫護團隊悉心照顧李女士,讓她在安全而又愉快的環境下,走完人生的最後一程。

 

李女士一生勤奮,為人真摯,勤儉樸實,相夫教子,樂善好施。如今她離開塵世,家人、親友、主內弟兄姊妹都懷念她,然而她現安居天家,與神同在,他日會再與大家相聚。
