Dad was a family man. He loved his family dearly and always looked forward to our visits, His pride and joy were his three granddaughter. Dad always felt that his family was one of the greatest gifts the Lord bestowed upon him. Dad was a person of deep faith: a caring, honest and hard-working man. He had a way of connecting with people leaving a lasting impression with those he met. We love you Dad, you are forever in our hearts.
We would like to thank the WRHA Palliative Care Unit for their kindness and wonderful care. The family would also ike yo thank in a very special way, Dr. Casey Woo, who took such great care of Dad over the years.
