Vincent Yiu-Wa Liang

Born on May 18, 1936, in Hong Kong, Vincent was the third of ten siblings. Growing up in a large family nurtured his caring nature, which guided him through decades of service and leadership. He began his career as a teacher at his alma mater, then joined the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, where his diligence carried him from clerk to department head.

Vincent married Magdalen in 1976, and together they immigrated to Canada in 1985. They ran a Chinese restaurant in Taylor, BC, his Friday clam chowder becoming a beloved local staple. From organizing toy donations for children in Hong Kong, to helping a stranger in medical need in Vancouver, to lending a hand in family and friends’ restaurants, Vincent’s kindness extended far beyond the kitchen.

He loved fishing and traveling; he cherished literature, Chinese poetry, and, above all, his family. In his final days, his siblings, nephews, nieces, relatives and friends traveled from different cities in Canada and from Hong Kong to visit, care for, and support him. Vincent passed peacefully on July 17, 2025, at age 89, with Magdalen beside him.

We remember Vincent for his wisdom, warmth, and unwavering generosity. His legacy lives on in every soul he touched.

🕊 Eulogy 述史- Vincent Yiu-Wa Liang 梁耀華先生

梁耀華先生於1936年5月18日出生於香港，是十位兄弟姊妹中的第三位。在大家庭中成長，培養了他溫柔體貼的性格，也引領他度過數十年的奉獻與領導生涯。他從母校任教開始職業生涯，之後加入香港上海匯豐銀行，憑著勤奮努力，從文員晉升至部門主管。

1976年，梁先生與夫人羅美儀結為連理。1985年，二人移民加拿大，在卑詩省泰勒鎮 (Taylor) 經營一家中餐館。他週五供應的周打蜆湯成為當地深受喜愛的招牌菜。梁先生的善心遠不止於廚房：他曾為香港的孩子們募集玩具、在溫哥華援助有醫療需要的陌生人，也在親友的餐館中出手相助。

梁先生喜歡釣魚與旅遊，熱愛文學、中國詩詞，尤其珍愛家人。在生命最後的日子裡，他的弟妹們、侄仔們、姨甥仔女們、親戚和朋友們紛紛專程從香港和加拿大不同的城市來探望、照顧、和支持他。他於2025年7月17日平靜辭世，享壽89歲，夫人美儀一直陪伴在側。

我們懷念梁先生的智慧、溫暖和無私的慷慨。他的精神將永遠活在受他感動的人們心中。
