A life well lived is a precious gift, of hope and strength and grace, from someone who has made our world a brighter, better place. It’s filled with moments, sweet and sad with smiles and sometimes tears, with friendships formed and good times shared, and laughter through the years. A life well lived is a legacy, of joy and pride and pleasure, a living, lasting memory our grateful heart’s will treasure. -Author Unknown

They moved to Lantau Island, where they started their family.
In 1981, the Wu family made the decision to immigrate to the United States and chose Las Vegas, NV, as their new home. Yee Wah Chow and Kwai On Wu had five children together: David, Pauline, Candy, Tiffany, and Dicken. They were blessed with six grandchildren named Wells, Stephanie, Niki, Lenise, Janay, and Justin.
