He was dearly loved by his wife Ann, his daughters, Sarah and Kerith, and his sons-in-law, Trevor and Brad. His grandchildren Justin, Daria, Camden and Nate were adored by their Ah Kong and they brought him much joy. Ik Soon was born in Singapore in 1932 and is survived by his five sisters, two brothers and many nieces and nephews. Ik Soon combined caring and practicality with a never- ending curiosity and an openness to learning throughout his life. He pursued his career as a structural engineer, first in Singapore, then England, followed by his immigration to Canada in 1963. He loved designing bridges and would often point out amazing aspects of engineering to his family, whether at home or whilst travelling. He easily adapted to living in Canada and made friendships that have lasted for over fifty years. He would fascinate his grandchildren with stories of his life, including living through World War II in Malaysia as a young boy. He thoroughly enjoyed introducing his friends and family to his Singaporean-style cooking, inspired by his mother. His wide ranging interests in travel, books, and art continued throughout his life. After retirement he spent many hours refining his watercolour painting skills, devoting time to driving cancer patients to appointments, and volunteering at the Bennett Long Term Care Centre. Ik Soon was often described as a kind and gentle man; his humility, patience and acceptance of all were treasured by those who knew him. Thank you to Mount Sinai Hospital for their innovative lung cancer treatments and to the staff at Acclaim Health, especially Jericho and Precious, who enabled us to keep him comfortable and at home. As he wished, his body has been donated to the Anatomy Department at the University of Toronto. A celebration of his life will be held at a later date. Donations in his memory may be made to CASHH (Cancer Assisted Services of Halton Hills) or to a charity of your choice.

Till we are called to follow you, and in the grave to sleep; yet since you could no longer stay to cheer us with your love, we hope to meet with you again in the bright world above. Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep, I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. Always so good, unselfish and kind, none on this earth your equal I'll find. Honourable and true in all your ways, loving and faithful to the end of your days, honest and liberal, ever upright, just in your judgment, always right. 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. What would I give to clasp your hand, your happy face to see, to hear your voice and see your smile, that meant so much to me. The rolling stream of life rolls on. OBITUARIES
