<div itemprop="description">Kwok Yim Hubert Ng, age 66, of Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada, passed away on Monday, February 22, 2016. He left this world peacefully while asleep at Southlake Regional Health Centre where he was receiving treatment and care for lymphoma. <br /> <br />Hubert was born to his late father Wai-Man Ng and late mother Wai-Chu Cheung, on April 26, 1949. He graduated from St. Paul Co-Ed High School in Hong Kong. While attending matriculation classes at St Stephen&rsquo;s Girls&rsquo; College in Hong Kong, he met and won the heart of his wife, Wai-Fan Vivian Yu. Following, Hubert crossed the Pacific Ocean to continue his studies at Oregon State University &amp; Maryland State University where he received a Bachelor &amp; Master&rsquo;s Degree of Electrical Engineering. <br /> <br />After enjoying four decades of a distinguished career in Telecommunications in US &amp; Canada, he retired in September 2014. Though a dedicated career man, it was the time he spent with his family &amp; friends travelling, skiing, hiking, cheering on the Blue Jays, and playing a friendly, yet competitive game of Mahjong that put a smile on his face (earning him the Chinese nickname &#22235; &#33836;). During quiet moments, one would catch him building (although mostly buying) model airplanes, reading, and watching the History &amp; Movie Channels. But most of all, he loved seeing his grandchildren, especially at The Cottage. <br /> <br />His wife, Vivian, of 41 years, son Victor, daughters Elaine &amp; Victoria, son-in-law Chris, and grandkids Dylan &amp; Kieran will sorely miss their husband, dad, gung-gung, and resident photographer. Hubert loved &amp; cherished his brothers KC and Hermann, and sisters Kwan-Ling, Anna, and Chu-Ling. <br /> <br />There will be a small memorial/visitation for Hubert between 12pm &amp; 1pm, on Saturday, February 27, 2016, at Highland Funeral Home Markham Chapel. <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers, the family would greatly appreciate donations to the Southlake Regional Health Centre Foundation, Cancer Program or to the Mackenzie Health Foundation. Donations can be made on-line by clicking on the 'Make a Donation' link below. <br /> <br />Thank you.</div>
