Chung Ting Tse

Chung Ting Tse, a devoted husband, father and grandfather, passed away peacefully on January 21st, 2022, at the age of 88.  Chung Ting was born in China and married his true love in 1960 while living in Hong Kong. Soon after marriage and with two young daughters, Chung Ting dreamt of new opportunities and success for his family and immigrated to Boston, Massachusetts in 1963.  With the enormity of learning a new language, no job, and no permanent residence, Chung was determined to have his dream realized.

And so, the journey began in the South End neighborhood of Boston. Chung Ting was eternally grateful for the hospitality from close family relatives who provided unwavering love and support.  With a new permanent residence and employment, Chung Ting’s family quickly grew with two sons. As the years passed his family absorbed the culture with great affection. He continued to work tirelessly to learn English, worked at various Chinese American restaurants, sometimes worked two jobs at a time with no days off, and eventually retired as a Mutual Funds Controller at State Street Bank.  Chung Ting was an avid sports fan of the Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics, and Patriots.  He also loved to travel with his wife, especially back to Hong Kong, China, and made frequent family trips to New Hampshire, Maine, New York, and Niagara Falls.  Chung Ting also enjoyed board games, playing cards, and a good match of Chinese chess.  

At retirement, Chung Ting continued his dream into California and moved to the Sacramento area where he lived his remaining years.  Chung Ting and his wife of 62 years never forgot the support they received and always remained humble.  They hosted many relatives and friends while cooking a variety of delicacies within their home and celebrated with warm welcomes.  His dreams have impacted his children and his children continue to dream and support the new dreams of others.

Chung Ting is survived by his beloved wife, Siu Ling; devoted father of Winnie and husband John, Minnie and husband Mitch, Jackman and wife Sally, and Jordan; loving grandfather of Matthew, Elyssa, Hannah, and Michael.
