It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Nha-Ling Jean Wong.
Nha-Ling will be remembered for her love of beauty, her kindness and the quiet joy she found in everyday moments. Her loving and forthright nature touched all who knew her.
She is survived by her loving sister Nancy (late Jack-You), brother Lance (Vivian), brother Donald (Liz) and sister Kaye. She will also be fondly remembered by her many cherished nieces (Connie, Ami, Kaila and Ziena), nephews (Garrett and Jacob) as well as her great-nieces and great-nephews.
Nha-Ling will be dearly missed for her warmth, her presence and the love she gave so freely.
The kind words, memories, and condolences shared have meant more to our family than we can fully express. It has been comforting to see how many lives she touched with her warmth, generosity, and quiet strength.
We would be honoured if you could join us for a Celebration of Life in her memory.

With deepest sympathy, my heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of Nha-ling. She was a sweet and loving soul whose presence brought calm, kindness, and quiet strength to everyone around her. In the makeup room, she was a steady, reassuring presence who made long days lighter and moments more peaceful.
Her warmth, generosity of spirit, and gentle way of being will be deeply missed and fondly remembered. Nha-ling touched the lives of so many and has left us far too soon. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

This is such sad news. I remember the heart-to-hearts with Nha Ling from the makeup chair. When she was on the job, she was all-in, mindful about so many details -- it always felt like she was taking care of me. She had a knack for softening the edges on rocky days. My deepest condolences to her family. I'm very sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathies to a Nha Ling’s family and friends. I had the wonderful opportunity to work with her during my time at CJOH TV. She did her magic in the mar up chair, with always a laugh and smile. She radiated happiness and brought a ray of sunshine to everyone she met. So sorry for your loss!

We first met on a freelance shoot, Nha-ling was a pleasure to have on set. She understood the rhythm of a shoot and always picked her spot to apply touches to talent without affecting that groove. We then met again we we both landed at CTV years later. Nothing had changed, she was still the same kind soul. Rest now, condolences to all her friends and family.

I am in shock. Nha-Ling was a colleague at Radio-Canada/CBC. I will always remember her smile, her calm energy and positive attitude. My condolences to all who loved her.
We are so sad to hear of her passing. May she rest in peace.
