December 21, 1933 - August 15, 2019
Eugene will be lovingly remembered by
his wife, Donna (nee Yee) of 57 years
and their children Sharon (Greg Knight),
Shannon (Lori and children Colby &
Alyssa), Damon, Leanne (Darren
Pedersen and son K.J.) and three
Grandogs, Tazzy, Carly & Davos.
Born in Shanghai, China, Eugene
overcame early challenges living
through the war, a concentration camp
and being repatriated to Vancouver, BC
all before the age of 11. He went on to
graduate from U.B.C. Medical School
and then on to his father's (Guy Hugh
Chan), alma mater, Northwestern
University in Chicago to finish his
Dermatological Residency. He was a
dedicated patriarch who had a passion
for travel, fishing, golf, tennis, bridge
and skiing that he passed on and
enjoyed with his entire family.
Thank you to Dr John Yap, G.P. and
Shafeem Khan "the Butler" for their
compassionate care.
There will be no service by request,
however, a Celebration of Life will be
held later this year. In lieu of flowers, a
donation can be made to Royal
Columbian Hospital Cardiac Clinic or
Lions Gate Hospital Palliative Care in
his memory.
