程龍光先生生於1925年9 月29 日，於江蘇鹽城。1949年隻身逃往台灣，在極為艱困的環境之中，完成大學教育，台南工學院（ 後為成功大學） 土木工程系畢業之後，在台北公路局工作，完成東西橫貫公路之工程，其間與國立台灣師範大學畢業之葉郁寜小姐於1960年結為連理，育有兩女－男。

由於工作表現𠎀出，被政府先後派往泰國，関𡷊，沙烏地阿拉伯，印尼，新加坡等地工作，協助當地政府修橋，鋪路，建水壩，造地鉄等重大工程，在沒有邦交的國家擔負台灣政府的外交工作，先後35 年之久，貢獻良多。

由於長期在海外工作，而失去許多和家人共處的時間，他覺得很愧疚，然而他在海外辛勤的工作，目的也是在改善家人的生活，退休之後的25 年當中，他才真正享受到天倫之樂。

龍光能說會道，對下屬更是照顧有加，是一個好上司，好丈夫，好爸爸，好祖父，

他的大嗓門及爽朗的笑聲將永遠被懷念。

Mr. Lung Kuang Cheng was born on September 29, 1925 in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, China. In 1949, during the Chinese Civil War, he fled to Taiwan alone, without any family members. Under these extremely challenging circumstances, he managed to complete his college education, receiving his bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering at the Tainan Institute of Technology, later renamed as Chenggong University.

After graduation, he worked in the Taipei Highway Bureau where he helped build the Taiwan East-West Crossing Highway. After meeting Ms. Yu-ning Yeh, a graduate of National Taiwan Normal University, they married in 1960. He is survived by his wife Irene (Yu-ning) Cheng, his two daughters and one son.

Mr. Cheng had an exceptional career working as a Civil Engineer. He was sent by the government of Taiwan (Republic of China) to help with construction projects in Thailand, the U.S. Territory of Guam, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Singapore. Those projects included building bridges, highways, dams, subways and other major construction projects. Mr. Cheng’s work not only helped to improve the infrastructure of those countries and territories, but also performed a diplomatic service for the government of Taiwan for 35 years.

While Mr. Cheng was proud of his work accomplishments, he regretted not spending time with his family because he was working overseas. However, his family understood the purpose of his hard work was to give his family a better life by providing them with financial support. After retirement, he enjoyed the family time he missed, especially playing with his grandkids in sunny Southern California. Those last 25 years were the happiest times of his life.

Mr. Lung Kuang Cheng’s charisma and leadership was admired by many of his work subordinates and peers. He was a good boss, husband, father, and grandfather. His resonating voice and hearty laugh will always be remembered.
