  Mr. LIEU. Madam Speaker, I rise to celebrate the life of Dr. Chen 
Ching Ying, who passed away on October 2, 2022. He was a beloved 
husband, father, and grandfather and an outstanding leader for the 
professional world of medicine.
  Chen Ching was born on May 6, 1930, in Qingdao, China, to Mr. Gua 
Ying and Mrs. De Zhen Li. After graduating from the National Defense 
Medical Center in Taipei, he served for 10 years in the Taiwanese 
military. After two years of service as a general medical officer, Chen 
Ching completed his residency training in Pediatrics for three years at 
Taichung Hospital.
  Following the completion of his residency in 1966, Chen Ching became 
a staff physician at the Taipei Veterans General Hospital. On May 6, 
1967, Chen Ching married his wife, Lily Fan. In 1968, their first son, 
Steve, was born. Chen Ching soon began studying for the Educational 
Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates and passed the infamously 
difficult exam. In 1972 their second son, Alan, was born. In 1973, Chen 
Ching began his internship in Internal Medicine at the University of 
Miami in Miami, Florida. After various residency programs, Chen Ching 
obtained his license to practice medicine and was able to settle down 
with his family in Ohio. His life is an excellent example of achieving 
the American dream.
  Chen Ching dedicated his life to the medical profession and his 
family. His upbringing and life in Taiwan brought forth an ethic of 
perseverance and service. With 63 years of experience under his belt, 
Chen Ching proved to be an essential asset to the medical world. While 
his passion for treating and healing patients drove him. Chen Ching was 
known for his love of family and a passion for table tennis, history 
and music. He was loved by so many people and touched so many lives 
with his giving spirit and caring heart. The loss of Chen Ching will be 
felt by his friends, family, and the many communities he has treated 
and served.
  Chen Ching is survived by his sisters, Lai-Ching and Ching-Ehr; 
brother, Chen-Zhe; and sons, Steve and Alan; and his grandchildren. May 
Chen Ching's memory live on in his many contributions to his community 
and family.
