Obituary
Stephen Chan, a beloved husband, father, veteran, and friend, passed away peacefully on April 23, 2025, at the age of 71.
Stephen lived a life defined by kindness, service, and generosity. A proud Army veteran, he carried the spirit of dedication into every chapter of his life. After his military service, Stephen built a long and meaningful career at Boeing, where he was admired not just for his skill, but for his quiet leadership and steady presence.
At home, Stephen found joy in the simple pleasures: tending to his garden, creating incredible meals in the kitchen, and offering a helping hand to anyone in need. His cooking was legendary among family and friends, always served with a warm smile and a full heart. Whether it was a neighbor needing support or a stranger needing kindness, Stephen was there — a selfless and steady asset to his community.
He is survived by his loving wife, Linda; his oldest daughter, Lisa (Chris) and 3 children (Andrew, Naomi and Rinoa); his youngest daughter, Kristine (Klay); as well as his only beloved brother, David (Stella); who will carry forward his legacy of compassion, hard work, and unconditional love.
Stephen’s spirit will be deeply missed but forever remembered by all whose lives he touched.
In lieu of flowers, please be kind to one another – that is what he would have wanted.
