YUEN, Mui

28 September, 1930 – 5 February, 2023

Mui Yuen, who was born in Hong Kong on September 28, 1930 and was better known to her family and friends as Ma, MahMah, PoPo, Tai-Mah, Tai-Po, Lee po-po, Yee-Mah, Gou Zhea and Gou Po, went peacefully to her eternal rest in the very early morning hours of February 5, 2023 at the age of 92.

She was the loving mother of Peter (Virginia) of Calgary; Maisie (Donald) of Toronto; Kai (Kam) of Montréal; Fred (Josephine) of Calgary; and Mona (Fenton) of Ottawa. Cherished grandmother and great grandmother of her 12 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren; Samuel (June – Elliot and Elizabeth) of Australia; Janice (Miles) of San Francisco; Paul of Ottawa; Brian (Chantal – Charlotte, Eleanor and Henry) of Ajax; Sungtai (Linda) of Montréal; Michelle (John) of York, England; Gloria (Nathanael – Norah and Judah) of Edmonton; Joshua of Calgary; Christopher (Lindsay – Rhys and new baby) of Toronto; Wing Yine (Jérémie) of Montréal; Grace of Calgary; and Finnegan of Ottawa. She also leaves behind her sister Yuen Cheung Chung (Lau Hay – two sons) of Hong Kong; her brother Yuen Cho (deceased) (Man Shim) of Hong Kong; and her niece Betty (Andrew – three sons) of Hong Kong.

Our mother immigrated with her husband, sons and daughter to Canada in 1974 where she worked hard to provide a better life for all of us. Mom loved to eat and enjoyed being around family, especially the children - who were always able to make her laugh and chuckle. She was also active with her church and her neighbourhood community. She will be sorely missed, but fondly remembered, by her family and friends.
