Riccardo Hon To Wong

Ric was born on June 26, 2000 in Hong Kong to Chaucer K.C. Wong and Sharon Hung Ping Tso. He moved to Canada in 2015 to study at Strathmore High School. He completed his grade 12 year at Sir Winston Churchill High School upon his parents moving to Calgary in 2016. He was elated to have been accepted into the University of Calgary Science Department and had just begun his first year of study. Ric was interested in all things electronic, especially gaming, and was fascinated with creating items with 3D printing. He delighted in learning wood and metal working while in Strathmore and continued this interest at home with handmade art projects. Ric also loved watching Japanese anime movies and cartoons and shared this interest with other enthusiasts at school and with his cousins. Ric was known for his enthusiasm for computers, his quiet humour, and his kindness to younger relatives.

He is survived by his parents, brother Leonardo, paternal grandfather, and many uncles, aunts, and cousins across Canada and in Hong Kong. Ric was preceded by his maternal grandmother, maternal grandfather, and paternal grandmother.
