Our beloved mother, grandmother and mother-in-law Mo-Ching Ng was born in Toishan, Guangdong Province, China in July 1930. In 1950, she was married to her husband Shil-Ming Ng in Toishan. Afterward, they moved to Hong Kong and lived in the Yuenlong area where they kept a farm. In time, they had four children: Tammy, Victor, Daydes and Michele.
The family moved to Vancouver, B.C., Canada in 1972-1974. Mo-Ching and her husband Shil-Ming worked in manual labour jobs due to difficulties with English but managed to settle and raise their family well. After retirement, she helped to raise (and spoil) her two grandchildren: Teresa and Andrew. Mo-Ching was predeceased by her husband, who passed away in May 1990.
Mo-Ching was a strong, traditional, hard-working, kind and helpful person. She enjoyed good food, beautiful clothes and travelling. She cherished life and lived it with great enthusiasm.
She also came to know and receive the love of God through believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, from whom she received much peace, love and assurance of the resurrection and eternal life.
In her old age, after a series of mini-strokes and physical limitations, she still had a lot of peace. Even in her last days, she did not have pain or discomfort, and would always respond that she was very well.
Mo-Ching passed very quickly and peacefully in the late morning of November 15, 2020. After her passing, she still had a smile on her face. She is survived by her children and grandchildren, and she is loved and honoured by all her relatives, friends and the church.
A funeral service was held on November 27, 2020 at 10:00 AM in Ocean View Funeral Home by invitation only due to health restrictions because of COVID-19.
