Hang Fong Ng

伍杏芳老太夫人在 1934 年出生於中國的廣東省台山縣。她生於戰後貧苦家庭，只有小學程度。為了減省家庭負擔，便遵從父母之命，被安排嫁給香港的丈夫，育有三個兒女。可惜丈夫並不顧家，所以她除了照顧兒女外，還要出外工作維持家計，獨立肩負整個家庭重擔。雖然如此，她很重視兒女的教育，無論生活怎樣艱難，她都想盡辦法找多份的兼職，確保子女能夠完成學業。她為人節儉，很少花錢在自己身上，但兒女的需要，她卻從不吝嗇。

及至女兒結婚移民到加拿大，伍老太夫人為了兩個兒子將來的前途，便舉家移民到加拿大。到達溫哥華後，她日間照顧孫兒，夜間在餐館工作，從不間斷，歷盡數十寒暑。

她最滿懷安慰的是看到子女各有成就，每人都有自己的事業和家庭。苦盡甘來的她，老年時並享盡四代同堂的兒孫福。

當她可以把家庭重擔放下的時候，便跟隨女兒去教會聽道，認識主耶穌，後來接受了主耶穌為救主。2014年底，在自立中華基督教會接受洗禮。

在2019年12月2日，她息勞歸主，享年八十五歲。

Eulogy

Ms. Hang Fong Ng was born in Toishan County, Guangdong Province, China in 1934. She was born post war era in a poor family and only had elementary school education. In order to reduce the burden on the family, she agreed to an arranged marriage with the husband from Hong Kong. Unfortunately, her husband did not take care about the family. She became the sole income source of the family raising three children on her own.

In addition to taking care of her children, she also had to work full time to earn a living. She valued the education of her children. No matter how difficult her life was, she tried to find part-time jobs to ensure that her children can pursue their education. She was frugal and rarely spent money on herself, but she never hesitated for the needs of her children.

When her daughter married and immigrated to Canada, Ms. Ng decided to also immigrate to Canada for a better future for her two sons. After arriving in Vancouver, she took care of her grandchildren during the day and worked in restaurants at night. She was grateful to see that all her children had their own achieved success. She was a hard-working soul, and when she was retired, she enjoyed the blessings of her extended family.

Without the burden of supporting the family, she followed her daughter to the church to attend sermon and to get to know the Lord Jesus. Later, she accepted the Lord Jesus as Savior. At the end of 2014, she was baptized at Vancouver Chris Church of China. On December 2, 2019, she returned to the Lord at the age of 85.
