Dave & Philip,

Tony & I would like to extend our condolences to you on the loss of your wife and mother. Her untimely death is a tremendous loss for everyone who knew her. We pray she is at peace. We feel blessed to have had the pleasure of making the journey from Oregon to Chicago with both Yong & Dave. We find comfort in our wonderful memories of the time we spent together. She was such a trooper. Although it was often evident she was not feeling great, she continued to smile and forge ahead. Our thoughts and prayers will be with the both of you. We hope it helps to know we care. Love, Bobbie & Tony

Dave and Phillip,

We can't even express the sadness felt over Yongs passing. Know that you are not alone during this time and make sure to take care of each other. Yongs generosity and beautiful smile will never be forgotten, it lives on in you both.

We were so sorry to hear of Yong's passing and our sympathy goes out to you David and Phillip from my husband and I. I had worked closely with Yong for many years at River Forest Bank. She was one very determined lady and knew EXACTLY what she wanted and where she was going. She consistently made my work days challenging. :) She will be sorely missed, but I believe she is at peace. God Bless You as you move forward in your life without Yong-just as she would have wanted you to.
