Obituary

"What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.โ€ - Helen Keller.


Ricky Kyin-Kok Ma peacefully passed away on March 7, 2021, in Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey at 70 years old.


His parents were from ๅปฃๆฑ็œ,ๅฐๅฑฑๅธ‚,่ฅฟๆ …ๅ ก,่ฅฟ่ฏ้‡Œๆ‘,ๆ–—ๅฑฑ (Taishan, Guangdong, Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, China)


He was born in Yangon (also known as Rangoon City), Burma. As the youngest of seven children, he was cherished by his parents and all of his siblings.

He was one of the hardest working people that we ever knew. Knowing little to no English, he came to the United States at a young age. He would work very long hours in a restaurant. As an adult, he worked three jobs to support his family. He had spent more than 36 years working for Amtrak.


Even though he worked from early morning to late night, he always found the time to help others. He had sponsored so many people, who he barely knew, to start their new lives in the United States. His love and care for his family showed no bounds. He treated his nieces and nephews as if they were his own children.


He was never afraid to tell his honest opinions. He felt that the family should stay close, and only wanted to protect us. When the time came where his children needed to leave the nest, he never shied away, and instead showed his support, at any given moment. All he ever wanted was for his beloved children to fulfill their dreams.


Since we were very young, he would always tell us, regardless how far apart we were geographically, if we ever needed his help, all we had to do was reach out our hand, and we would feel his presence. We always thought it was silly, but now we realize it was his way of showing us he would always be there to be our pillar of strength, and maybe he was preparing us for this day.


He was a loving husband, father, brother, uncle, cousin and friend.


May YOU forever be at peace.


We love YOU.


We miss YOU.


Forever you will be in our hearts,


Linda Ma

To Ricky the King of Ma's family,
You will definitely be missed, from now on, on your birthday, you can't hear my singing HB anymore, but that doesn't mean you are not with us, always in our heart and mind,
Rest in peace Ricky, protect, take care and watch over your family from above,
You did a great job in raising the children to become successful people in the society, such a blessing, and thanks to Linda always taking care of King Ricky beyond our imagination,
Still remember lots of good old time that you can spare and come visit or join us for parties or celebration or Seattle trips, priceless, valuable and cherish all memories,
Though you are not here anymore, but your spirit, your love, your care will always outshine and protect all those you love,
"Those we love don't go away
They walk beside us everyday
Unseen, unheard but always near
Still loved, still missed and always dear"

Uncle Ricky is probably one of the closet uncle I had while growing up. When I was young I would love to go over to his house to play with Kathy, Davis and Jackie because they have so many new toys. They are very fortunate to have such great and loving parents. I remember he will always bring us out to cool places. Aunt Linda was the one who gave me and my sisters our English names. I am forever grateful to have such wonderful memories while growing up.

Uncle Ricky was a hard working man. He always put his family first. He is very loving and caring. I wished we had more time to spend with him. I am very blessed to have such a great uncle. You will be missed so much. Rest in peace.

There are no proper words and expressions to express the sorrow that I have in my heart to lose my dearest uncle Ricky. There is no replacement for such a hardworking and dedicated person like him. At this time, all that I can do is pray for his soul to be at peace and protected in Godโ€™s grace. May you rest in peace dear uncle. We will miss you deeply.

Uncle Ricky was extremely hard working and generous with his time and energy. When he was working, he would find the time to run a business selling audio and video components and equipment, and often gave family members free gear. After he retired, Ricky built, from scratch, a thriving garden in the backyard of his New Jersey home growing, among other crops, HUGE winter melons that he would give the family and friends when they grew to full size in the late Fall. Losing Ricky after an extended illness has been extremely tough on all of us; however, we are comfortable praying and knowing he is no longer suffering and is in God's graces.

With our blessings,
Spencer Chin, Jenny Wu, and Diana Ma-Wu
