Obituary: Captain Yung Tung Wangs Obituary:

Captain Yung T. Wang was born on 4, 1913 in Shanghai, China to C.T. Wang and W.L. Yu. He was their first child and when he was only fouryears old his mother passed away. His father remarried and he would eventually have eight brothers and sisters. Their family was somewhat impoverished and true to his nature for the rest of his life, Captain Wang looked out for his younger siblings. He went on to graduate from the Wu Song Merchant Marine School at the top of his class and became a pioneer in Chinas merchant marine industry when he was appointed as one of the captains on Chinas first generation of international merchant carriers.

In 1949 Captain Wang moved to Taiwan and in of 1949, he married Han Wen Yu in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. In 1955, their only child, Victor, was born and in the early 1960s, they moved to Taipei. Family life was not easy as Captain Wang was often away from home for up to four years at a time due to his job. In 1964, the whole family moved from Taipei to Long Island New York where Captain Wang worked as the general manager for the Mai Hwa Shipping in lower Manhattan. There he oversaw their entire global shipping operations. In 1972, Captain Wang retired and moved his family into the Viewridge neighborhood in Seattle because the weather was milder and so Victor could attend the University of Washington to study engineering. retiring, he and his wife traveled to Europe and China, where most of his relatives lived. He was known as a generous man and would not hesitate to help a friend or family member financially and would frequently write letters in order to communicate with those abroad.

Much to his joy, his grandchildren, Amanda and David, were born in 1988 and 1992 respectively. Captain Wang was especially elated that he had a granddaughter because he had never had a daughter. While they were growing up, he loved spoiling his grandchildren rotten by making sure while they were with grandpa they ate whatever they wanted as well as taking them frequently on indulgent trips to the shopping mall. He also saw exercise as being very important so for many years he would walk around the neighborhood every day, and many people in the area came to know or at least recognize him that way. He enjoyed gardening in his backyard and planted roses, a plum and pear tree as well as annual crops of various vegetables. Neighbors as well as friends will remember that Captain Wang was very generous in sharing his bountiful harvest. Although he hadn been physically able to plant or maintain even his favorite tomato plants for several years, Amanda helped him plant and nurture one last batch in May along with some snow pea plants.

On 20, 2011, Captain Wang went in for a routine physical but in the week before he developed a sudden loss of appetite. He was then diagnosed on 29, 2011 with an advanced aggressive stomach cancer that had caused him to be very weak due to internal bleeding. When he received the news, he merely nodded his head calmly and said he was already 97 years old and had experienced everything he wished for in life, so what more could he want? The timing of events was a blessing as Amanda had just graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and David from Garfield High School and both of them were at home so they could spend as much time with him as possible. He would say repeatedly that he was especially grateful for his family and just wished to die peacefully and quietly. He expressed the desire that no one else should know about the diagnosis because he did not wish to trouble others or to make them worry about him. Captain Yung T. Wang passed away at his home at 12:10am on 4, 2011, only two weeks after the initial doctors visit, surrounded by the family he loved and devoted his life to. We will miss him very much.

Memorial Celebration of Life will be held , 13, 2011 - 10:30 AM at Acacia , Seattle, Washington.

Obituary: EARLY YEARS, SPRING RAIN, AND HIGH SCHOOL

She was born in Beijing, China in 1921. The family moved to Shang-Xi Province when she was 2 months old. Subsequently the family made additional multiple moves as a result of job, WWII, Japanese invasion and occupation, etc. ending up in Shanghai while in college.

Upon her birth, her grandmother hired a maid to help her mother with house work. This enabled her mother to devote her time on the care and the upbringing of the new-born. Her mother loved to read and write poems. Always wishing to go to college with advanced study abroad to follow, her mother never could or did. In the old days in China, it was not considered important for a woman to acquire a high degree of education; the expectation is to be capable, presentable and likable. Her mother did not want her to follow the same fate and experience deep regret.

At the age of seven months, her mother started to teach her how to read. At age of one, she could read off signs and posts. At age of four, she could recite some complex Chinese poetry (from The 300 Poems of Tong Dynasty). With the early start, school work was easy for her. Not satisfied with what the curriculum covered, she was eager to learn significantly more. Her mother hired a tutor to teach her each day after school for a couple of hours. She appreciated the opportunity of extra coaching and teaching which planted the seed of her support to tutoring.

Her eagerness to learn paralleled her eagerness to share knowledge. With a younger brother and two younger sisters, she spontaneously taught them as much as they could take. This heralds her subsequent teaching career.

As a young girl, one night she overheard an adult conversation joking about a family, that the thieves would not get into their door. The adults laughed heartily. Not understanding the humor, she asked her father. Her father just shook his head, walked away and provided no answer. Her mother subsequently explained the joke to her. That family had 5 daughters and would have to put up a lot of dowry to marry them off. Thieves had their code of Robin Hood justice and would not steal from a poor family; a family with several daughters is considered poor. She took offense by that type of mentality and remembered that vividly, which further strengthened her resolve to excel.

When other children were struggling to read and especially to write, she enjoyed it very much. While in 4th grade, she had impressed her teachers except for some. One day a teacher of another class called her to his class and asked if she would write an impromptu composition on the spot if the teacher would select any topic for her. She accepted the challenge with a smile. The topic given was Spring Rain. In a short period of time in front of the teacher, she finished and submitted what she wrote. What in the teachers hand was not just a scrambled composition, but a compelling contemporary Chinese poem. The teacher read it, and was very impressed. That teacher quickly showed all the other teachers, who unanimously agreed that this must be reported to the principal. The principal was amazed and immediately decided to print it, and made it a reading assignment for all the students. In addition, the principal wrote a letter to her father, congratulating the family for having such a talented child, and for her unprecedented academic achievement. This completely changed her fathers old fashioned biased attitude toward her education.

She continued to excel through high school, always the top student wherever she went to school and able to obtain scholarships when available. Physics, chemistry and mathematics were her favorite subjects. The only thing she did not do well in was calligraphy. Somehow she did not seem to see the value of spending a lot of time practicing the same stroke after stroke until it looks beautiful. She would much rather spend the time reading or studying.

Small in stature, she compensated with extra hard work and practice to get in sports. She would get up at 5 am to practice until eventually the efforts payed off and she became members of the schools volley ball and basketball team.

ILLUSTRATIVE COLLEGE YEARS AND WORK

The college years coincided in time with the turbulent years of WWII, Japanese invasion and occupation of China, and subsequently the rise of Chinese communism. Toward the end of high school years, disruption of school administration, moving of schools and loss of records and transcripts resulted in difficulty of admission to college for many students. She was able to get into Jiau-Tung University, subsequently transferred to Ta-Tung University when the family settled in Shanghai.

To help reduce the financial burden of the family, she wanted to get a scholarship. The most prestigious scholarship for Ta-Tung University was donated by Mr. Tsu (?), an influential business man. It was awarded to three top students in science and math. Being the top student, she did not hesitate to apply. Her application however was not accepted, because there was a stipulation that the scholarship is for men only. She disagreed with the decision and wanted to appeal. The professors supported her but advised her to acquiesce to the discretion of the donor. She continued to want to fight for the de facto bias/discrimination and requested an interview with Mr.Tsu (?). Mr. Tsu was well connected and had heard of this talented and unyielding young lady, and granted her the interview. She remembered meeting Mr.Tsu, a large tall man in a very tall building sitting in a large tall chair. Not intimated but encouraged, she eloquently elaborate her case and answered questions. a long interview, not only did she get the scholarship but also changed his policy. This also started a long continued...
