Born in Shenyang, China, Peilan Liu lived a life full of love, kindness, and generosity. She was a pillar of warmth for her family, always putting others before herself. Her unwavering love and gentle spirit touched the lives of everyone who knew her.
Peilan Liu was a devoted wife to her late husband, Defeng Ding, and a loving mother to her three children. She cherished her role as a grandmother to 3 grandchildren who brought her immense joy and pride, with Tony Shang being her absolutely favorite, and 3 great-grandchildren.
