Wei G Li

With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Wei G Li, a compassionate and humble soul, on April 8, 2026. Born in the heart of Taishan, 江门市广东省中国, on August 27, 1938, Wei was a beacon of resilience and spirit. His remarkable journey from his place of birth to his long-time residence in Whitehall, Ohio, is a testament to his enduring courage and determination.

In his professional life, Wei was a master chef, weaving culinary magic in his restaurant. His customers were captivated by his spirited and resilient approach to his craft. His passion extended beyond the kitchen, resonating in his love for old-fashioned Cantonese music and his fondness for reading newspapers. But what mattered most to Wei was his beloved wife, Yian Ying Li Yu. Their enduring love story was the cornerstone of his existence and a source of inspiration for many. Wei is survived by his sons, Michael Li, and his daughter, Joann Xie. He was preceded in death by his parents, Zhou Li and Nu Yu.

Visitation will be held at Evergreen Funeral Service & Reception, 1855 E 17th Avenue, Columbus, Ohio, 43219, on Thursday, April 16, 2026, at 12:00pmEDT. This will be followed by a Home Going Celebration at the same venue at 1:00pmEDT.

We invite you to leave your cherished memories and upload photos of Wei on his memorial page. These shared moments will be a comforting reminder of the compassionate, humble, spirited, and resilient individual that Wei was, touching and enriching the lives of those around him.
