Kenneth Sze Kit Yeung (楊思傑) was born in Hong Kong, on March 3, 1937. His parents were Joseph Yeung Yui Sang (楊銳生) and Yeung Sin Kwan Che (楊冼君慈). He grew up in Hong Kong, except for the three years of Japanese occupation during WWII, when the family moved to Macau. Kenneth also lived in Wales for a couple of years in the 1980’s when he supported and sponsored his foster sons when they were pursuing their higher education in Wales. In the 90’s, he moved to Vancouver, along with his elder sister, King Wan.
Battling with liver cancer, Kenneth had peacefully passed away on June 24, 2024.
Kenneth was educated at the Wah Yan College, a Catholic all-boys college run by the Society of Jesus, in Hong Kong. He and his brothers were all Wah Yan alumni. Because of his schooling at the College, he had a lifelong and strong affiliation with the Jesuit Society.
Kenneth was a successful business man. In Hong Kong, he ran a government building maintenance and operations company. After moving to Vancouver, he was in a partnership in the mini-storage business.
With gratitude for God’s blessings in all his endeavours, he honoured the Lord with his time and his wealth by giving back to the Church and the local and global community. He always served at his church and he volunteered at a long term senior care facility in Vancouver for a number of years, working with the frail elderly. He supported and sponsored numerous young people to study abroad for a better and brighter future.
Working together with his good friend and the Jesuit Society in Myanmar, they have funded a piece of land for the Jesuit Society to build a school as well as a number of projects: supporting an orphanage, providing medical treatments for the poor and funding young people for their higher education.
Kenneth loved God and the Church. He also loved his biological family, foster family, friends and fellow-pilgrims. God’s goodness and love had surely followed Kenneth every day of his life. Now Kenneth is back home in the house of God for the rest of his life.
