Sze Tsun Liang was born in Canton, China on July 1, 1925 and passed away July 20, 2020 at the age of 95. Tom grew up in a time of war and revolution. As a young adult he was chosen for pilot training by the Chinese Nationalist Air Force and later served as a B-25 bomber pilot. He married Alice in 1948 and they moved to Hong Kong in 1949 where he served as a fire fighter. They had three children and immigrated to America in 1956.
