Ron was best known for three things; His devoted and beautiful wife, Lady Di, their two sons, Christopher and Michael and their families and his positive and long-lasting impact on the Chiropractic profession. Dad loved his work. It was his passion. He knew his calling at a young age and was meant to be a Chiropractor. He had healing hands and a healing tone. He knew that his profession needed a guide and a leader. He held many positions in the chiropractic world from President of the OCA, which lead to many countless hours working with the CMCC and then moved to the role of the President of the CCA at a national level. He was given the distinction of "Chiropractor of the Year" and soon he followed his calling to become VP of the CCE, a global accreditation group whose mandate was to standardize the education in all of the chiropractic colleges and universities around the world. All this while still running his practice in Stoney Creek, which he did for 50 Years. When dad retired he took the remainder of his life to spend more time with his family; with Michael and Anka and their two children Sloane and Jackson and with Christopher and Shannon and their kids Madison, Chelsea, Abby and Finn. He learned how to slow down and focus on all the excellent adventures with family and friends. He took great pleasure from them and always had fabulous stories to share to anyone who would listen. He continued to play tennis as long as he could, and then it became a reason for him and the tennis "boys" to get together. Like all the things he was involved with, he built wonderful friendships that lasted his lifetime. He always found a way to bring his favorite phrases into conversations, here are the three he liked most; "plan your work, work your plan and plan for the unexpected " "present time consciousness", "lather love lavishly ". If you'd like to send a 15-30 second video message to his wife Dianna or the boys please email to drchris@musclecare.net.

She was tragically taken from us as an innocent victim of this dreadful pandemic. Mary was born in 1947 in Guangzhou, China. She attended university in Hong Kong, where she studied World Literature. She boldly immigrated to Canada at the age of 27, settling in Oakville, Ontario. She then retrained and worked as a corporate accountant for the majority of her career. On August 28, 1978, she married Mike Chun Kin Yeung. Together, they worked tirelessly to provide every opportunity to their only son, Jeffrey. Mary was a lover of Shakespeare, classical music, and was an avid fan of prodigious violinist, Joshua Bell. As a respectable Chinese mother, she pushed her son through piano lessons, for which he was (in hindsight) extremely grateful. Though, her true devotion was to her family and those closest to her. All those who knew Mary were touched by her generosity and selflessness. She found the greatest fulfilment in spoiling her loved ones (including the four-legged). In recent years, she came to discover the joys of traveling and relished in many voyages with her family and friends. Her adventures brought her all around the globe. In 2018, we were fortunate enough to travel as a family to Halifax, Strasbourg, and Hong Kong for the weddings of her son and two nieces. Her speech at her son's wedding, which she promised to be short and sweet, was more the latter than the former, and is still recounted for its comedic flair and demonstration of her enormous pride for "my Jeffrey". Soon after, Mary was blessed with a grandson, Jonah. He proudly displays her love and talent when wearing the bespoke hand-knitted sweaters she made for him. Mary was preceded in death by her parents, Susie and Chin Hung, and elder sister, Helen. She is survived by her husband, Mike, son, Jeffrey (Erin), grandson, Jonah, brother, Peter (Rebecca), sister and best friend, Margaret, nieces, Kay (Ben) and Lynn (Mathieu), grandniece, Margot, and many other extended family members. A private celebration of her life was held on Tuesday, March 16, 2021. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Breakfast Club of Canada. Online condolences can be made at oakviewfuneral.ca.

Lovingly remembered by family and friends OBITUARIES | REMEMBERING THE LIVES OF THOSE IN OUR COMMUNITY Pleasant in manner, patient in pain, our loss is your eternal gain. Your cheery ways and smiling face, are a pleasure to recall; you had a kindly word for each, and died beloved by all.

Heavy are our hearts today, memory brings you back once more, to the time when you were with us, to the happy days of yore. Time may heal the broken-hearted, time may make the wound less sore; but time will never stop the longing for the loved one gone before.
