Our beloved mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, Kit-Ming Tung, passed away peacefully in her sleep on September 19, 2023 at the age of 99, only five months shy of her 100th birthday.
She will be lovingly remembered by her ten children, Ken (Anna), Teresa, Bernard (Lugina), Stella (Albert), Eva (David), Kitty (Nick), David, Lina (Hoi), Angel (Peter), and Elsa (Eric); 16 grandchildren; and 16 great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her loving husband, Chim; and her mother.
She was born in Hong Kong in 1924. During the war-ravaged period in Hong Kong, she married her husband and gave birth to her first son. Over the 22 years that followed, she gave birth to nine more children. In 1984, she immigrated to Vancouver with her husband. They both very much enjoyed a new life making friends in Chinatown. At Christmas 1991, she accepted Christ and was baptized at Church of the Good Shepherd. All her life, Mom was exceptionally blessed. She was well taken care of by her late mother and late husband, as well as her devoted children, particularly her daughters in Vancouver who took turns to visit her at the care home seven days a week.
She was ever so fun-loving, and she deeply enjoyed the fellowship of family with food and laughter. Our family is sustained by the value of respect and manners she has instilled in her children and grandchildren. She was, and will forever be, dearly loved.
A funeral service will be held on October 21, 2023 at 11:00 AM at ANiC Church of the Good Shepherd 189 W 11th Ave., Vancouver. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to ANiC Church of the Good Shepherd. The family wishes to express our gratitude for your thoughts and prayers.
