Perry Pao-Yuan Wong

Born May 25, 1934 in Shanghai and passed away on April 14, 2005 at home in

Seattle. He is survived by his mother King-Lay Woo, all four of his younger

siblings, his wife of 43 years, Kui-Mi Lo; their children AlexNova,

GrantBeijun, RenaArmando; and 5 Grandchildren. Perry courageously sought

freedom for himself and those around him. He endured foreign occupation and

later escaped communist rule in China by smuggling into British Hong Kong,

joining his father there. He educated himself in construction engineering

and worked at the Paul Y. Construction Co. An opportunity took him to Sabah,

Malaysia in 1958 where he worked for the China Construction Co. and later

the Sabah Public Works Dept. He married and had three children at the foot

of Mt. Kinabalu. Seeking better schooling for his children, the family was

uprooted to H.K. Joining forces with his father and brothers, Wong & Sons

Construction prospered. With the imminent return of H.K. to China, the

family was uprooted again, this time landing in Seattle in 1977. Perry

worked at Atlas, DelGuzzi, and the Jack A. Benaroya Co. before starting

SeaPac Construction. He retired from SeaPac but remained active until his

passing. Memorial Service will be held Friday April 22, 10AM at

Evergreen-Washelli, 11111 Aurora Ave N, Seattle. Reception and lunch to

follow.

Grant
