Obituary for
Cecil Gee Mah
On January 28, 2022 Cecil Gee Mah passed away at the age of 90 years old.
He is survived by his daughter, Elizabeth; sons, Alfred and Peter; daughters-in-law, Anna and Brandi; and grandchildren, Nicole, Courtney, Ethan, Avery, Emma and Kara.
He was predeceased by his son, Terry; son-in-law, Martin; and his wife, May.
After Cecil arrived in Canada he lived in Vancouver and Athabasca before settling in Edmonton. Cecil worked very hard to give his family a good life. In time, his mother from China came to live with the family.
Cecil owned and operated several businesses with his wife May. When their businesses started to grow, their children soon worked with them. It brought Cecil a lot of joy to work with his children and to see them every day.
He was a well-respected businessman and a member of many associations in the Chinese community. Cecil was kind and generous. He was a humble man and helped anyone in need. He made contributions to help build a care centre in Chinatown and a school in his hometown in China.
We will all sadly miss Cecil and his smile, sense of humor, and just being able to talk with him daily.
A private service will be held. A livestream of the service may be viewed at February 6, 2022 at 10:30 by selecting “Webcasting” from Cecil’s Book of Memories on his page.
The family would like to thank Mandy and all the staff of Unit 5C at the Edmonton General Continuing Care Centre. They are very appreciative of the care Cecil received.
