Wei Yang Shao's Obituary
My dad, Wei Yang Shao, was born in Beijing, China on September 1, 1956. He passed on November 4, 2023. He is survived by his wife of 36 years, Cher Shao, two sons, Dennis and Morris Shao, older brother, Ya Fei Shao, and nephew, John Shao.
We will remember dad as someone who always helped friends and family with various matters that required tinkering and fixing.
While he spent his days and nights working tirelessly in a restaurant as a chef, his passions included fishkeeping (reflected in his care of aquariums and a koi pond) coupled with skills that made him an imaginative handyman.
There was nothing my dad could not figure out, there were always creative solutions. Whether it was maintaining and fixing, or building what was needed for the home. Truly anything my dad could get his hands on he would help address, applying his knowhow. He was not one to say much, rather his actions spoke louder than words.
Thank you, dad, for all that you’ve provided. We will honor you by staying steadfast and caring for the things around us as you did. So much of what you gave we are reminded of every day as we walk the halls and into the yards. We love you dad, and miss you.
我的爸爸邵伟扬于 1956 年 9 月 1 日出生于中国北京。他于 2023 年 11 月 4 日去世。他身后留下了结婚 36 年的妻子 Cher Shao、两个儿子 Dennis 和 Morris Shao，哥哥邵亚飞和侄子 John Shao。
我们会记得爸爸总是帮助朋友和家人解决各种需要修补和解决的问题。虽然他日以继夜地在一家餐厅里担任厨师，孜孜不倦地工作，但他的热情包括养鱼（反映在他对水族馆和锦鲤池的照料上）以及使他成为富有想象力的勤杂工的技能。他把业余时间奉献给了后者，自学成才，因为他知道这对于帮助养育一个家庭很有用，因为家庭和随之而来的一切都是生活的中心。
没有什么是我爸爸想不通的，总有创造性的解决方案。无论是维护和修理，还是建造房屋所需的东西。确实，我爸爸能接触到的任何事情，他都会运用他的专业知识来帮助解决。他不是一个话多的人，但他的行动胜于雄辩。
谢谢您，爸爸，感谢您所提供的一切。我们将像您一样坚定不移并关心我们周围的事物，以此向您致敬。当我们走过大厅和院子时，我们每天都会想起您所给予的很多东西。爸爸，我们爱您，想念您。
