Their marriage gave them 4 wonderful children: Diane, Nancy, Joe and Kathy. During her 99 years, she spent the early years in Guangzhou, China. Because of the war in China, she moved to Hong Kong with her family and subsequently migrated to the US. Mrs. Chan was a devoted catholic since her baptism in Hong Kong years ago.
