He was born in China and lived in Macau and Hong Kong for most of his younger days. He migrated to Canada in the 1980's.
Lau Cheung was predeceased by his wife, Cheng Fong. He was survived by his two children John Shek Hung and Sherry Shuet Yee, his six grandchildren Cedric, Samantha, Shauneen, Stephanie, Gerald and Elaine, and his five great grandchildren Abigail, Maxwell, Ava, Nathan and EJ.
He was a simple man who enjoyed watching the NBA, WWE and other sports events. Some of his favourite pastimes included eating potato chips, crackers and ferrero rocher and spending time with family.
Having been able to live to the age of 99 years is quite a milestone, and for this his family feels blessed.
