Description

Full Text: Hung Sik Kim (John to his

friends) passed away Sept

22nd at his home completing

the full life of an unassuming

man. Fleeing North Korea as a

child, John chose to travel

Europe before coming to

Canada. Initially working

construction, he became an

independent Taxi owner of 40

years before retiring due to

COVID-19. Marrying Liesbeth

Kim the two moved to Whitby

in 84 living together until her

passing in 2004. Those

fortunate enough to meet

John quickly recognized his

warmth and character and

those lucky enough to be his

friend knew they could count

on his support even if all that

was needed was a smile. The

hole left by his passing is a

testament to lives he touched.

Donations to Lymphoma or

Diabetes Canada would be

appreciated. Goodbye John,

we miss you.
