Achueh W. Chu
1918-2012
Achueh W. Chu, 94, St. Joseph, Missouri died Friday, May 18, 2012 at a local healthcare facility.
She was born March 5, 1918 in Tauyen, Taiwan.
Mrs. Chu lived at the same home for 80 years in Taiwan. She immigrated to America at the age of 80 where she lived with her son and daughter in St. Joseph, Missouri until she passed away at the age of 94.
She had many opportunities to return to her home country, but steadfastly refused because she loved the United States. She liked to say: “Jesus in charge of United States!” Toward the twilight of her time on Earth, she became a Christian.
Achueh loved her garden and was very active outdoors until the closing months of 2011.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; two sisters; and two brothers.
She leaves behind five daughters and one son, four daughters live in Taiwan, one daughter and her son live in St. Joseph, Missouri; 22 grandchildren; and a trainload of great-grandchildren.

What more can be said— your mother left five daughters and one son… she fulfilled the mission for which she was put on this earth…. her legacy will be the good deeds that her children, grand children and great-grandchildren do in order to make the world a better place to live. Part of her legacy is to inspire two of her children to become outstanding entrepreneurs and cooks in their new homeland. Cheers from Kentucky… thinking about you… Jerry, Peg and Erik….
