Jack Chick Ying Woo

Born on October 7, 1933 in Shunde, Guangdong, China, Jack emigrated to Canada as a teen. He built a life defined by hard work, generosity, and deep love for his family. Jack was well known for his passion for cooking and Woo’s Kitchen, his Chinese food restaurant in Lloydminster, AB, which he proudly ran for 40 years. His warmth, dedication, and the meals he lovingly prepared touched countless lives in the community.

Later in life, he had the opportunity to be reunited with his extended biological family in China which he was eternally grateful. Jack will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Josephine; his children, Vivian, Brenda (Bill), Kathleen (Aaron), Lenny (Tuyen) and Alan; and his grandchildren, Kianna, Rylan, Mena, Micah and Jaxon.
