Obituary for
Mee Yee Hong (Wong)
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Mee Yee Hong (nee Wong), daughter of Yue Ping Wong on Monday, on August 24th, 2015 while at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. Mrs. Hong passed away peacefully after being admitted to the hospital for a major brain aneurysm on August 1st. A resident of Smiths Falls, Ontario, Mee Yee was the beloved widow of Kee Bill Hong, and survived by her children: Joseph, Paul, Grace, Edward and Timothy. Born in the Guangzhou-Shantou region, raised in Hong Kong, China, Mee Yee came to Canada in 1954, and worked hard to raise a young family with her husband Bill in cities across Southern Ontario, such as Gananoque and Toronto, before settling in the town of Smiths Falls. She was a strong supporter of the local Asian Community and a wonderful parent for her children and their friends. Mee Yee Hong will be profoundly missed by her loving family, relatives, and close friends. Friends are invited to visit at the West Chapel of Hulse, Playfair and McGarry, 150 Woodroffe Avenue, (at Richmond) on Thursday, September 3, 2015 from 4 – 8 p.m. Graveside Service will be held in the Hillcrest Cemetery, 3540 Perth Hwy W, Smiths Falls on Friday.
