Uncle Ho was always calm, kind and cheerful.  He was always gentle to his wife and genuine to his friends, including friends of his children.  Maybe that was why the Ho’s family doors were always opened to all!

We have fond memories of playing MJ with Yvonne at his home in Hong Kong.  Remembering the time when Fai called to win and while all legs were paying him, Uncle stepped into the room with a glimpse and said, “Wait!  It’s a false win (詐糊), there is a missing tile (小相公)!”. Promoted to be his MJ leg, I discovered that not only was he intelligent, sharp and swift despite his age, he was always the winner!

As Uncle started his new journey of life in heaven, we can still see traits of him in his children and his wonderful smile in our hearts!



Dear Raymond, Yvonne and family, I am so sorry for your loss. May his soul rest in peace and the supreme being be with you all in your grief. 

I think of Uncle Ho as a gentle spirit who always seemed to be able to be at peace in whichever environment he happened to find himself in.  Anyone who can last through dinners with my father certainly has my respect;  may they enjoy each other's company again!

A man's success is measured by what his wife, children, and grandchildren say about him.  In that I think Uncle Ho has been exceedingly successful.

Dear Uncle Ho,

I was shocked when receiving news from Raymond.  I heard from Raymond how good a father you are, and how your life has been blessing many! 

I remember in 2015, Raymond invited me to visit you in the hospital.  That day, auntie, Raymond and I were there.  I listened to you, prayed for you and shared Jesus’ love and salvation to you.  You sincerely opened your heart and let me lead you to accept Jesus as your personal
Savior.  That was an amazing grace!  

I know you are in Jesus’ hand and resting peacefully and joyfully right now, and I am sure we shall meet again in the heaven.

May God’s comfort be with your family!

Peace
Pastor John 


Being the youngest grandchild in Canada, I have always spent more time with my Grandpa than my other cousins.  When I was younger, I used to go to 爷爷’s house a lot. I would watch TV with him, eat snacks and I would do homework there.  37th was like my second home to me. Although we didn’t talk much, I felt really comfortable and safe just by the presence of 爷爷. I would also call 爷爷 and 奶奶 every night after my dinner, talking to them about school and what I ate for dinner, etc. I will miss you, 爷爷!  Those times were very enjoyable and I will cherish them forever. 
 
-Love, Jackie

Dear 爺爺,
When I think of you, I think of all the memories we shared, I could still remember the times when we would stand next to you at the MJ table watching you played magically and beat everyone including our dad. When we got bored, we would sit at the other table and build stacks and stacks of MJ while stealing candies from the candy tray, those moments will always stay in my heart. Seeing you goofing around with 嫲嫲 proves how much love you have for her; seeing 嫲嫲 takes care of you every day shows that she couldn’t live a day without you. Your perseverance and care for others inspire me a lot and I am very lucky to be your granddaughter, thank you for being a part of my life. Even though you are no longer with us, we will forever hold you in our hearts. 
God will take care of you in heaven now. It must be more beautiful than Vancouver. See you again!

Love always,
Rachel

Dear 爺爺,
My favorite memories with you were the time when we visited Vancouver every summer and stayed in your big and beautiful house. I remembered the times when we would play in the front yard all day long and you would watch us run and hear our laughter. You are a very kind grandpa to me because you always carried a smile on your face and never got angry at me. I am sorry I could not visit you for the last three years but I loved seeing your smile through our weekly FaceTimes. I am sure you are with God in heaven now looking down upon us every day. I will forever hold you and our memories in my heart. 
Love, Jaimie

I remember walking through the main doorway to a residence at 37th Avenue where I met Mr. C.C. Ho for the first time; a kind gentleman that my good friend, William, feels so proud to call him Dad. 

Uncle Ho is still as much alive in my memory as 28 years ago when I first met him in his house, which mythically enough, seems to have a story to tell us.  As I stood close to its main wooden door during my recent visit and lent my ears to it, the unconfirmed story started to unfold itself... 

Not "Once upon a time...", but on many occasions in the past, when Aunt Ho returned home, driving her car into the driveway and somehow magically, Uncle Ho would make his appearance at the main door and often with a subtle and genuine smile. A simple act that looks so ordinary and yet says so much about him.  Aunt Ho will forever keep him in her heart as her wonderful companion.  And for everyone else, his smile and kindness will be missed dearly by all.

Please accept my warmest condolences. I am truly sorry for the loss of Mr. Ho. His family is one of the kindest and most amazing people I have met. Mr. Ho's family impressed me with their attentive care and love they had towards Mr.Ho. Mr. Ho should be very proud of the fine people they are. Not only was Mr. Ho lucky to have such a loving family near him, But I too was lucky to have met and know them, along with Mr.Ho. I wish to send my biggest hugs, and prayers for Mr. Ho's family. May you rest in peace, Mr.Ho.

十姨丈的人生是圓滿的, 他的仁德也是代代相傳的


As the only grandson who is able to fluently speak Cantonese, my relationship with 爺爺 has always been a little more closer compared to my other male cousins. I have mainly been in Canada the past 2 years which gave me more time to strengthen my bonds with him. During COVID, I had dinner with them every Thursday as a replacement for the family dinners we could no longer do. Afterwards, it was Mahjong. MJ was where you would forget that 爺爺 was 95 years old. Just like the majority of elderly, 爺爺 spends most of his time, eating, sleeping, watching TV, and reading the newspaper. However, at the MJ table, he has a mind sharper than a sword forged by a master blacksmith. His mind is so sharp that you would forget he is an old man. When he has to take his medicine, he knows exactly which pill is what and why he has to take them even though the instructions are in English. He even makes sure he has the right number of pills for crying out loud! I will miss you and all the funny banter you and 嫲嫲have at the MJ table. I will always remember the lesson辛苦幾年舒服一世, and your favourite MJ phrases, 快而不准, 不知所謂. You have lived a long and prosperous life and I am very happy to have been in it.

Dear 公公, I am blessed to have spent time with you in the past summers and winters, you were a respectful, generous, caring and open-minded person. You always had  a big smile on your face and would always be on my side whenever I was down. I loved celebrating festivals with you and grandma, especially on your birthdays when we sang birthday song and watched you kissed 婆婆. I will miss you dearly.  Love Charlie

Extending our heartfelt condolences on the passing of 十姑丈. May he Rest In Peace.

十姑丈 was truly a remarkable and respectable man. His cordial smile and kindness will forever remain in our hearts.
We will miss having meals together with him. He taught us to take our time to appreciate food with family and friends.

Our thoughts and prayers with 十姑媽 and our cousins. 

Iris and Heidie

May Auntie Ho find solace while Uncle Ho rests in peace.  We wish to convey our deepest condolences to their large and loving family.  They have always shown the greatest care and devotion to their parents and to one another while generously sharing their joys with friends and colleagues.  We are blessed to be their friends and may warm memories bring sweet remembrances in the years to come. 

Love from Alex and Lulu

Uncle Ho’s warm smile and gentle and kind presence will always be in our hearts.

We are very saddened to hear of recent loss of  十姨丈.									
									
My memories are seeing a warm smile, soft words and loving demeanor. He will be missed but will live on in all the minds of those who had the privilege of knowing him.									
									
We would like to express our sincere condolences and we are here for you and your family, now and forever.									


It is my deepest sorrow to hear 十姨丈 passing away. He was always a respectful person in my heart. I remember his smile, gentleness and calmness. He built a harmonious family with love and care. He enjoyed life and never missed a moment to share his wonderful life with his beloved wife.

His life was a blessing, he is loved beyond words and missed beyond measure. May he rest in 
peace.


I am honoured to have known Mr. Ho. He always stood as a gentle and soft-spoken person with great wisdom. Mr. Ho will live within our hearts. Gone but never forgotten.

Mr. C. C. Ho何清中先生是我的十姨丈，也曾是我的老闆。他為人正直，是個謙謙君子；當遇上問題時，在公在私，他都對我循循善誘，細意分析教導，是我尊敬的一位長輩。那時候，每當到他家中作客吃飯，十姨弄了滿桌子的餸菜，他的七個淘氣小兒女圍坐著，你一言我一語的，十分熱鬧，充滿歡樂的氣氛，這個畫面至今不忘！他愛妻子，愛子女，愛家庭；是個絕世好爸，是太太心中的絕世好男人！
何清中先生的離去，十分惋惜！
十姨丈，我永遠懷念你！


To my dear Aunt #10 (十姑姐 ) and my dear cousins & family,

I’m sad to hear of Uncle #10’s (十姑丈 ) passing. May you all find peace and love in the beautiful memories of him and of the times that you have shared with him.

I remember Uncle #10 as a patient, kind person who brought with him a calming, grounding presence wherever he went. I remember his gentle smiles. I remember the time I was spending my school vacation with you all in Vancouver and he was taking the time to get to know me, what I was studying and what I was planning to do in life. I remember…

“Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories.”

Sending you all love and hugs.

Dear Aunt & all my Dear Cousins,
Please accept our deepest condolences for the loss of your very beloved.
We will keep our dear and forever kind Uncle 10 always in our hearts and minds!

敬愛的何 uncle,  
大學時侯星期日我常去你家和何家兄第打球前小聚．你和何 auntie都是笑面迎人,不介意我麻煩你們. 之後長大了有機會和你閒談時,你便教我一句"嚴以律己,寬厚待人", 而你正正就是這種人.
數年前在您生日晚宴時,你提醒我們後輩不要"懶了一時,輸了一世” 到現在都是記憶猶新.
誠懇地多謝你的善導. 我和慕欣一起向你敬重.


Ninety-five years of a happy life.

From your kids to grandkids,
you watched as your family grew over time.
Enjoying this lifelong journey,
you exceeded great heights.

Nineteen years of happy summers.

Your home that became my comfort place
not a day felt duller.
As you watched your family with a content smile on your face,
the hot summer days felt brighter.

Many years of memories.

Forever in our hearts,
no one wanting to be apart.
It's hard to say goodbye,
but you can't fight against time.

So, thank you for being part of my journey,
grateful for the family I have around me.
I'll never forget our little stories.
From summers to winters,
Hong Kong to Vancouver,
when the moon's gleaming bright,
those are the times I'll remember,

your ninety-five years of a happy life.


My dearest father-in-law is an easy going and loving person. I will never forget his boyish smile and glittering eyes over a scoop of ice cream. He looks beyond luxuries but greatly appreciates token of thoughts and affection. He can crossover age groups and mingle with our friends and grandchildren very well. It’s always a pleasure to have his presence at dining events regardless of our company and cuisine. 
I am very grateful for his undeniable faith and trust in me and especially thankful for being a role model to William, my life time partner. He has illustrated to us the true meaning of love and respect. Although he has physically left us, his wisdom and teachings will stay within my heart and soul forever…

Uncle Ho and his family bring warm and inedible memories - his friendly welcome from his room window upon first visit (1989) and mini lecture before our first Christmas trip to Disneyland with Anthony (1990) are still vivid. 

Uncle Ho's amiable personality and kind words will be deeply missed. May he now rest in peace with God.

清中兄:     八哥永遠懷念您！


Uncle Ho was a kindhearted and welcoming gentleman who always wore a smile.  Even though we bumped into Uncle Ho in restaurants a lot more than seeing him at his home, there was this feeling of closeness with Uncle Ho as if we see each another all the time.  We will miss the days when we were together at Uncle Ho's house gatherings, and enjoyed listening to his stories about himself and his proud children.  

Uncle Ho, you will always be remembered.
 

I have particularly fond memories of my father in law.  This is not because he is a kind and gentle person, a loving husband and a selflessly devoted father, which we all know.  My most joyful memories of him have come from our common passion, the game of MJ.  Through my many MJ meetings with him, I had a good appreciation of his intelligence, his great temperament, his sense of humor and how lively, witty and playful he could be.  Indeed, when others might have thought that I was a good son in law because I would spend time playing MJ with him, they probably did not know how much I genuinely enjoyed it.  It is such quality time we spent together which I will really miss going forward.  So, despite my sadness in his passing, the thought of him will always bring a smile on my face, as there are many fond memories of time we spent together which was truly enjoyable and forever memorable.

I have the honour to know Uncle Ho thru my friendship with Anthony. I remember he was always a gentlemen, well spoken and polite. He always welcomed me upon my late night visit at the 37th Ave home and I still remember. 

Please accept my most condolences. 

Michael. 

I have the most respect for Uncle Ho as a role model and a true gentleman. I am remembering his kindness, calmness, fairness, attention to details, neat handwriting, mastery in mahjong ...

Forever rest in peace.

Amiable, gracious, hospitable, unassuming, that is how I will remember Uncle Ho.  I recall fondly the many carefree days of yore I spent at 37th St.  Uncle Ho was always welcoming despite my frequent surprise visits, time and again let me savour Auntie Ho’s delicious home cooked meals, and provided me with my own private TV/game room.  
Ever the calming presence, not a tad perturbed by the noises and vagaries of seven plus one kids, Uncle Ho was always respectful despite our silliness.  Unflustered by our provocations, tolerant of our temerities, Uncle Ho was always mindful not to interject to spare us from embarrassments.  All these will be etched on my memory. 
A little over a week ago, Uncle Ho left us to embark on a different journey, accompanied this time only by his guardian angels.  One day we may all cross paths again, in a more perfect time and place.  Until then, I bid you adieu.  May peace be your eternal companion. 

I have known the Ho family ever since high school in Vancouver and count myself fortunate to remain friends to this date.  I remember the days visiting Anthony and Raymond, and would see Mr. CC Ho with a gracious smile, welcoming us to his home as always.  I am particularly impressed with consistently strong family values prevalent among the Ho brothers and sisters, which is undoubtedly inspired by their father.

My condolences to the family.

Stay strong, stay proud, stay in hope.  


We are very sorry to learn about the passing of Mr. CC Ho, who was a much-loved and respected gentleman and family man. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Ho family at this difficult time. 

I am deeply sorry about the loss of Mr. CC Ho. He was a kindhearted, generous person. As a recipient of his kindness and generosity, I will miss him greatly.

我們最尊敬的三舅父，我們永遠懷念您。很感謝您對我們一直以來的關懷和幫助，我們有今天的幸福生活是離不開您的恩典，我們很感恩有您。今天您的離世我們十分難過，沉痛悼念，望您一路好走，您永遠活在我們心中。

外甥女,
淑薇


I have known the Ho family for three decades and they have been a significant part of my life especially during my highschool years. I have not met the father many times during all these years but he has always given me the impression that he is a traditional , friendly, funny and a loving farther who is always there for his family. Raising seven kids is a tough feat and with the help of his loving partner, he seemed to have done it with ease. He can rest now after all these years of hard work and he is in a better place now. I wish his loved ones can all be happy for him. 

May you rest in peace,

Sincerely,

Jeremy Chan


Raymond my friend, deepest condolences from myself and family. Thinking of you and your family during this difficult time. Karina and I had the great honour of meeting your father once in Vancouver and he left an amazing impression on us. We sometimes still mention him in our conversations, full of admiration and respect. A more beautiful place awaits.   Our prayers are with you all. 

何清中先生是我的十姨丈，也是我的好老闆。他為人正直，是一個謙謙君子，工作態度認真，在公在私都對我循循善誘，細意分析每一個問題，是一個令我尊敬的長輩。 那時候，每當到他家中作客晚飯，看到滿桌子飯餸，圍坐著他的七個淘氣小兒女，你一言，我一語的說個不停，充滿歡樂，至今印象難忘！他愛妻子、愛子女、愛家庭，是一個絕世好爸，是太太心中的絕世好男人💕
何清中先生的離去，令人惋惜！十姨丈，我永遠懷念你！

The loss of you will always sting baba. I love you more than any word can describe. You were an amazing man and I am lucky to have you as my Dad.  Forever missing you.... Mui 

Dad was one of the best individuals I had ever known and will ever meet. He was hardworking, charismatic and compassionate; had the kindest heart, the warmest smile and was the most unselfish person in the world. 

Dad loved Mom to the fullest and not once disrespected her in their 58 years of marriage. He also had the broadest shoulder of all men I have ever met who never complained about hardships in life. He devoted his entire life raising his seven flesh-gobbling carnivore (化骨龍) in the most amazing way and lived out the highest quality of a loving dad, the easiest going father-in-law and the most adorable grandfather one could ever dream of having. In addition to his total dedication to the family, he was also a dear friend to many and treated every person he came across with the tremendous generosity regardless of their age, gender or social status. We only live once and Dad truly lived his with abundance of blessings for 95 years! 

Love is the core of Jesus’ life and preaching and throughout Dad’s life, he was the truest living example of ❤️.

「愛」是恆久忍耐；又有恩慈；不嫉妒；不自誇，不張狂，不做害羞的事，不求自己的益處，不輕易發怒，不計算人的惡，不喜歡不義，只喜歡真理。

凡事包容，凡事相信，凡事盼望，凡事忍耐。愛是永不止息。

- 歌林多前書13章第四節

Dad, see you in heaven. 😘😘

Forever love from your son,
Raymond
