He was born in Beijing China, on July 18,1959 and when he grew up he became a doctor. His profession would later take him to the University of Chicago, where he worked as an associate professor and helped so many people, both patients and colleagues. He had a kind heart and loved to spend time with his family. He will always be remembered for his big bear hugs, his love of sweets and his appreciation of life.
