CHO FU LAI (Frank), beloved husband, grandfather, father, son and brother, passed away peacefully in his home at 7:00 p.m. on 27 February 2014. He was in the company of his family (his wife, Joan, his son, Yee-Ping and his daughter, Yee-Ann) and in the great care of his hospice provider, Vitas.

Consistent with his wishes and in the spirit in which Frank lived his life, he chose to donate his body for medical education and research through the Willed Body Program at University of California, Irvine / School of Medicine.
