Mei-Wan Huang age 89 passed peacefully at home in Wayne, N.J. on Friday, December 6, 2013 with three of her children at her side. Mei-Wan was born and raised in Ximen, China. At the age of 20 she married Kuo-Liang who worked in his family tire business. The couple had their first child, a daughter. Then after the end of World War II they moved with her to Taiwan where Kuo-Liang started his own import/export business. The couple had five more children between 1947 and 1954, two sons and three more daughters.
The oldest daughter was accepted at the University of Tennessee and after graduation moved to New York where her mother visited her in 1972. Mei-Wan then began to travel back and forth with her husband between the U.S. and Taiwan to be with the different members of their family. In 1976 Mei-Wan and Kuo-Liang immigrated to the U.S. as did the other children shortly thereafter. They initially settled in North Bellmore, N.Y. In 1987 the couple moved to Bloomingdale, N.J. and then in 2011 to Wayne, N.J. In 2004 Mei-Wan was widowed by the death of her husband Kuo Liang.
A very independent woman, Mei-Wan was an excellent homemaker all her life and a loving and devoted wife to the late Kuo-Liang. She created unique recipes which delighted her family, as well as making beautiful curtains and other useful items for her home. In addition to sewing and cooking she enjoyed long walks, but most of all she loved to be surrounded by her family members. She was very proud of the accomplishments of all her children and grandchildren and cherished her great granddaughter. One of the saddest experiences of her life was the death of her young grandson, Jack Ming at age of 16.
Mei-Wan was the devoted mother of her six children and their families: Wayne residents Koli (Eddie) Huang and his wife Wendy; Kocheng (Kurt) Huang and his wife Ling-Long; Yet-Fang (Judy) and her husband Peter Han, as well as Yet-Chun (Debbie) and her husband Edward Ming of East Brunswick and Yet-Chi and her husband Benny Terng of Baltimore, Md., and Yet-Feng and her husband George Yu of Wantagh, L.I.; and grandchildren Steve and Tony Huang, Raymond Han, Felix and Jennifer Yu, Frederick and Cynthia Huang and great granddaughter Ava. Mei-Wan is also survived by a sister, Christina, and her husband W. H. Ko, and by her late husband brother, Ho Huang, and his wife, Hedy.
