Biography of Mrs Sitt Shee Lee (Leung Sum)

File consists two copies of a faxed biography of Leung Sum. She was born on October 1, 1903 in Hong Kong, and arrived in Vancouver in 1922. She was married to Lay Gee Leung (David Lee). She lived in Chinatown in the back of the WK Oriental Gardens Restaurant, owned by her family. The biography discusses her connection to The Jade Peony, "Mom was never an early riser but she was an early arriver-- especially when it came to coming home just a few hours before dawn. Some of those wonderful memories are captured in the words written by Wayson or Sonny Choy in his reminiscences in the Jade Peony as well as in his upcoming work."
