Yuet On Fung

of Marianna, AR

February 7, 1927 - November 5, 2021

Yuet On Fung (Joe) passed away on November 5, 2021 in the comfort of his home in Marianna, AR. Yuet was born in Hong Kong on February 7, 1927. He was preceded in death by his three sisters, Mei Yuk Tang, Lai Ha Fung, and Gee Oi Young. Yuet was married to Chun Mui Fung for 63 years until her passing in 2017. Yuet and Chun had 8 children together with the oldest, Ngan Jan Fung and the youngest, Pak Shiu Fung, preceding him in death. He is survived by 6 sons, Jack Fung and his wife Ivy; Pak Kau Fung; Kuen Fung and his wife Karen, and their two children, Michael Fung and his wife Vivian, and Cathryn; Sam Fung and his wife Susan Farley, and their two children, Max Krueger and Farrah Fung; Pete Fung and his wife Elisabeth, and their four children, Jordan, Jacob, Devrah and Caleb; and Pak Foo and his wife Asia, and their two children, Kayson Bell and Beckett Fung. Yuet and Chun immigrated to Arkansas from Hong Kong in 1966 in search of opportunity. They settled in Marianna and Yuet started his career as a butcher at U-Save Supermarket. They eventually purchased their own grocery business in 1968 and operated the store (Fong's Market) until his retirement in 2013. His love of fishing would bring enjoyment to his life. Mr. Fung was an avid Razorbacks fan who would not miss a game either watching on TV or listening to the radio. In addition, Mr. Fung was an excellent Mah jong player. A tireless worker, Mr. Fung and his wife put six sons through college. In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory can be made to St Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Mr. Fung left a wonderful legacy in his children. All of the boys are exceptional human beings. And, although the boys would disagree, I’m sure that Mr. Fung could out fish them all. Mariana, our State and the US have been blessed as a result of the Fungs immigrating. He is a man to be honored.

We all will miss you so much and remember you, “Big Uncle.” You were that to us in more ways than one - in name, in person and by example. Now as you have left this earth among us, your spirit will dwell in our hearts forever. We will never forget the values that you helped to instill in us and the impact you had on each of our lives. We will always cherish the fond memories of growing up around all the cousins with you and “Big Auntie” at the store. You were another parent who taught us to be hard workers and respectful of one another. Thank you. Love you always. Your niece. Jackie (Young) Laberer 😘❤️

Our deepest condolences to the Fung’s family. Goo-Jan will be sorely missed. He is a gentleman, determined, hard working man.

I have also lost someone close to me. While I can’t know exactly what you’re going through, I do empathize.

Hope this message brings warmth to your family and let us send our love and hugs all the way from Hong Kong.

We'll miss you Dad. Absolutely the hardest working and most tenacious person I know. A hero to many, you have a resolve to accomplish your goals like no one else. Your work ethic is second to none. Your determination is matchless. And you have been a great inspiration to many who knows you.
You took a situation where you were given very little and your choice was to become a statistic or build a foundation for your family. Your choice to move to a new country not only created an incredible legacy but it forged a foundation vital to the success of future family generations that will be Christ-centered.
Thank you Dad for all your sacrifices, for teaching us, by example, what hard work means, and for your dedication and focus on providing an education to all of us.
We will miss you, and we will always remember you.

With love, honor and respect,
Pete Fung
