Yao Fang Chao Yang

Sister Yao Fang was born in 1926 in Shanghai, China. She was married to Mr. Yang, Pei-Guang in Tianjin, China in 1946. During the first two years of their marriage, the eldest son Yang, Tsung-Yuan and second son Yang, Tsun-Yin were born. They later moved to Taiwan in 1949 due to war in China.

Sister Yao Fang had a happy marriage and wonderful family. Her daughter Yu-Wei and youngest son Tsung-Chih were born after a new life in Taiwan. While her husband worked at the construction team in the Railroad Department, Sister Yao Fang studied and passed the exam for Clerk of Court in 1974 despite her busy schedule. She worked hard for 16 years and retired in 1990.

Flower arrangement was one of her hobbies. She often demonstrated her artistic side by displaying many beautiful flower arrangements at home.

Sister Yao Fang immigrated to San Diego. after her husband passed away in 1995. She had always held on her faith in Lord and served faithfully. Because of her wonderful personality and kindness to others, she had made many caring and loving friends while attending Sunday Worships and church activities.

But unfortunately on March 1st, 2020, at age 94, Sister Yao Fang passed away due to complications. Although we are saddened by this news and reluctant to say goodbye, we are grateful to know Sister Yao Fang had left her weak and painful body behind and is now resting peacefully in Lord.

We firmly believe that she will forever live in our hearts, and the memories of her will never subside. When Lord comes, we shall meet her again in heaven.

我們敬愛的楊趙瑤芳姊妹離開我們，回歸主懷了。

瑤芳姊妹為上海市人，生於西元1926年，1946年與楊培光先生在天津結婚，婚後一年生長子宗源，兩年後生次子宗義，隨後因國共戰爭而離開家鄉，於1949年來到臺灣。

抵台後先生任職公路局工程處，夫妻感情融洽家庭美滿，瑤芳姊妹勤儉持家，後又添得三女與四男，因食指浩繁在繁忙的家務工作之餘努力進修，1974年考上臺北地方法院書記官直到1990年退休，從事公職16年期間盡忠職守，與同事相處和睦，閒暇時參加插花協會，家中常有賞心悅目的作品。

1995年丈夫去世後來美，定居聖地牙哥，瑤芳姐妹一生虔誠信主，忠心服事，待人和藹可親平易近人，常參加主日崇拜與教會活動，因此結交許多互相關懷、互相扶持的好朋友，不幸於2020年3月1日病逝，享年94歲，雖然我們心中依依不捨，但是想到她能擺脫塵世間的病痛，平安歇息在主的懷中，真是為她高興。

我們深信她會永遠活在家人和朋友的記憶中，當主來臨時，我們必會與她在天上相見。
