Shu-Dao (Sue) Huang was born in Taichung, Taiwan and was the second youngest in a family of 5 sisters and 2 brothers. Following high school, Shu-Dao earned a college degree in education in Taichung, Taiwan. Shu-Dao and her husband, Hung-Chang (Henry) Huang moved to Canada, and would find a home in Toronto (Ontario), Morden (Manitoba), Lethbridge (Alberta) and finally, Richmond (British Columbia). Along the way, she earned a certificate in data entry, learned classical piano, worked as a key punch operator in Toronto (with the Ontario Government), in an administrative job in an accounting firm in Lethbridge, and raised two children, Tim and Sarah. In Morden, Shu-Dao would become close friends with the Russell family (Andy and Lynn, their children and grandchildren), who treated the Huangs as family. While in Lethbridge, Shu-Dao provided over 2000 hours of volunteer service at Lethbridge Regional Hospital.
Shu-Dao was very kind, patient, humorous and devoted to her family. She made many friends along her journey, and was a pillar of moral, emotional and physical support for all. She had many talents, and was able to overcome hardship and difficulties in many different forms. Shu-Dao cared about others more than she cared for herself, and often was found providing for her family without any thought for herself. Her wisdom, perseverance, selflessness, generosity and kindness were reflected in all she came in contact with, and will not be forgotten.
Shu-Dao fell ill in February 2021 in the midst of a chaotic global pandemic, and passed away on the morning of February 26th. The love Shu-Dao put out into the world during her time here will warm her family and friends for generations to come and will not be soon forgotten. Shu-Dao is survived by her husband, Hung-Chang, her children, Tim (Machiko) and Sarah (Sean), and her grandchildren, Isaac, Ryan, Eric, and Jake. The pain felt by her passing is a testament to her contributions and selfless devotion to everyone in her life, which is more appropriately put into feeling rather than written into words. To say she will be missed would only be a slight expression of sentiment.
