Pancreatic Cancer Dept: Wong died Saturday at age 72, after battling pancreatic cancer for several months, according to Vancouver Sun. "There were more things that he would have done. He was an amazing human being who did a lot of good in furthering the causes he believed in." Milton Wong, who grew up in Chinatown as the son of an immigrant tailor and became one of Vancouver's most honoured financiers, philanthropists and com-munity leaders, has died. "It's a real loss. He was still very vigorous until he got ill earlier last year," said Joe Wai, a Vancouver architect and friend of the Wong family. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
