Born in Toisan, Guangdong, China, she was the youngest of 4 children. She arrived in Vancouver, BC at the age of 21 to marry Jimmy Hoy.
She was predeceased by her husband, Jimmy, and her sister Wu (Lim) Rui Ai and brother-in-law Wu Wen Yan of New York and her brother Lim Don Vang of Toisan.
She is survived by her children Muriel (Bill), Gary (Mandy), Nancy (Peter), Norma, Ken; grandchildren Justin, Courtney, Claire and her many nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews. She is also survived by her brother Joetin Lim and sister-in-law Anna Lim of San Francisco.
Lila followed Jimmy to Bonnyville and later Myrnam, both in Alberta, where they operated restaurants. In 1964, they returned to Vancouver where she worked in several sewing factories before having the opportunity to run a successful restaurant in North Vancouver. She worked tirelessly, waiting on tables and putting in long hours six days a week, never once taking a sick day.
In retirement, she developed a passion for gardening, generously sharing her harvest with family, friends and neighbours. True to her heritage, she spent countless hours preparing Chinese delicacies for those she loved. We are now left wondering how we will manage without her nourishing herbal soups.
May you now find peace and comfort in being reunited with your loving husband, Jimmy; your father, mother, brother, sister and brother-in-law.
You will always be in our hearts.
A visitation for Lila will be held Saturday, January 25, 2025 from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM at Forest Lawn Funeral Home, 3789 Royal Oak Ave, Burnaby, BC V5G3M1.
