My deepest condolences to Auntie Grace, Clara, Vicky, Darren and their families, to all the siblings of dear Uncle Henry (including my father) and my cousins who all feel the loss of a beloved family member.   I will always remember Uncle Henry for his kindness and joyful smile.   Uncle Henry and Auntie Grace’s shared their lovely home with us when my Dad first brought us to Vancouver so I always have happy memories of when we first arrived Vancouver.   We were so blessed to receive family love and care during that time.   
May Uncle Henry rest in eternal peace.

I am sending my deepest condolences to Aunty Grace, Clara, Vickie, Darren and families. Thinking of all you, as well as my dad and all of Uncle Henry’s siblings this morning. 

I remember staying at Uncle Henry’s house when my family first moved to West Vancouver in 1983. I remember the kindness and generosity of Uncle Henry and his family, and the feeling of safety, comfort and “home” even while being in a foreign country for the first time as a young child. This is a testament to the love and family he built around him. I will miss him dearly. 

Sending thoughts & prayers from Singapore,

My sincerest condolences to Aunt Grace, Clara, Vickie, Darren and family. 

This seems obvious now, but when I was a young boy, I always found it so funny and crazy how Uncle Henry shared so many physical similarities and mannerisms with my own Dad (Roger) and it was because they were brothers.

In my mid 20s, my parents must of been away in HK so it was just me at our 2168 home... It was about midnight and I was having trouble falling asleep... I opened a window completely forgetting that the alarm was on... A few mins later, the phone rings... I was expecting the police... It was Uncle Henry!! I felt so bad bc Uncle Henry must've been asleep and gotten a call from the alarm provider to call my home. I was also expecting to get an ear full from my elder uncle... But Uncle Henry just calmly asked me if I was ok and if the house was ok. In that moment of confusion and embarassment, I could feel the reassurance and extension of family love.

I will always remember Uncle Henry's hearty laugh. 

May he rest in peace. 🕊️

Dear Aunty Grace, Clara, Vickie, Darren and families, we were so saddened to hear the news of Uncle Henry's passing. The closeness of the Tsang siblings despite being split over three continents has always been a source of admiration and pride - a testament to how the older siblings have looked after the younger - so this is a deep loss for the Tsang family. We remember Uncle Henry always with his cheerful smile and jovial manner and especially remember the hospitality of staying with you in Vancouver on our first visit 40 years ago.  Uncle Henry will be very much missed and we are praying that all of you will find strength and comfort in the the blessing of loving memories of happy times together, even as you grieve.  Love, Debbie (with Paul, Brandon, Jared and Lucas)

My dearest older brother Henry was a very special person: he was kind, caring & generous.
He looked after Amy & myself when we first arrived Sydney, Australia back in 1957. He was always close in my heart even though we lived on different continents.
Whenever we we went to Vancouver Henry & Grace welcomed us to stay in their home. We played indoor tennis, went skiing & enjoyed many cruises together. These were happy & memorable times. He will be missed dearly!
Our love & prayers are with Grace, Clara, Vickie, Darren & families.
Love from Miranda (& Tony)

My deepest condolences Grace and her children Clara, Vickiie and  Darren and their families

My deepest condolences to Grace and her children and theirfamilies. 

Henry was the most kind and loving brother who took very good care of me when I was small. He drove me to high when I was in Hong Kong and also drove to college when I was Vancouvrr, before he went to work before he went to work. 
When I and one of my elder sisters Tammie were staying with Henry and his family in Vancouver back in the late 60s and 70s we had many happy times together— he took us to picnics on weekends, fishing in Horseshoe Bay, crab-catching and digging clams  in Boundary Bay,  trips to Victoria , Whistler, San Francisco and Disneyland in LA, etc.  He taught me how to drive a car. …and a lot more. 

I  will always dearly and deeply miss him. 
May my beloved eldest brother  Henry rest in peace!

Our deepest condolences to Auntie Grace, Clara, Vickie, Darren, and your families.
Uncle Henry was always kind to us and treated us with wonderful dinners when we were in Vancouver. I will always remember the fun and laughter we shared during family cruise holidays since our honeymoon in 1996.
May him rest in heavenly peace🙏🏼
Our prayers and thoughts are with your families 🙏🏼

I dearly remember my elder brother Henry who I follow his footsteps in life in many ways. 
In 1960, I attended the same boarding high school in Sydney, Australia as Henry did in 1952
In 1964, I went to USA for university (same like Henry did before) As an elder brother, looking after the young, he accompanied me all the way. We flew from Hongkong to Hawaii, San Francisco, Madison, Wisconsin. He left only after i settled well in the dormitory of University of Wisconsin.
When I and family immigrated to Vancouver in 1983, we stayed in Grace and Henry's home, being well looked after, until we moved to our own home nearby. Since then, over 30 years,  Henry and I  often played tennis and golf together, recalling many good shots and joyful times,
Henry, my elder brother, is dearly remembered by Roger Tsang & Family.

The friendship between Henry and I went back to the 1960s when we were students at MIT. In fact, we even shared an apartment for one semester. We managed some cooking, some eating out despite the awful Chinese restaurants then in Boston area. 

When my wife and I visited Vancouver in our later years, we got to know Grace as well and even managed to play a set or two of double tennis in an indoor court. We have always cherished our friendships and I will miss him dearly.
