It is with great sadness that Mrs. Lo passed away peacefully on Sunday, January 23, 2011 at the Yee Hong Centre for Geriatric Care, Markham, in her 95th year. She was born on September 1, 1916 in Guangxi Province, China. She lived in London, Ontario from 1983 to 2003. She was very active in the London Chinese community and made significant contributions in promoting Chinese culture.

She will be sadly missed and fondly remembered by those who knew her kindness, generosity and vitality. The family wishes to thank her personal care workers and the staff at the Yee Hong Centre for their dedication and tender loving care.
