Not sure what to say?

Dr. Kong was my dentist at Pediatric Dentistry and always made my sister and I feel so welcomed at appointments. As a current UConn student, he talked to my sister and I about his undergraduate years and time in medical school. Dr. Kong was very caring and I definitely felt comfortable and well taken care of during our conversations. I am thinking of his family and the Pediatric Dentistry Staff during this time.

I am so saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Kong, a beautiful soul. He was always so kind and caring during my son, Alex's visits. He spoke of his son with such great joy. I cannot say enough about him. He will truly be missed. I am so very sorry about your loss. He was a great man.

My family is greatly saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Kong. He was so kind with my daughters. At virtually every visit, he would tell my daughter Grace that Grace was his favorite name because it was his wife's name. Makes me smile to think of it now. You are in our thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.

Grace and family, we were shocked and saddened to learn of Colins untimely passing. Although we had limited contact with Colin, in reading the other entries he was a very caring and compassionate professional and person. Please accept our sincere condolences and prayers.

My son was a patient of Dr. Kong. Dr. Kong was a a warm, smart, and caring person. We were so saddened to learn of his passing. He helped us in a great time of need. He went above and beyond the scope of what was required of him when caring for my son, and he always took the time to speak to us with respect and understanding. He was a blessing.

Thank you, Dr. Kong.

What a loss to our community. Colin was my Chemistry TA in undergrad, and Uconn Dental alum. He was patient, generous and kind and I am sure he brought that energy to everything he did. Prayers to Erin and Gerald and the rest of the family.

Dr Colin was a warm and caring clinician. My kids adored him and I had the utmost respect for and trust in him. Not only were my children his patients but I later learned that my parents were friends of his from church. His passing is a huge loss to our community in Madison. My heart goes out to his family, whom he spoke of often.

Colin was someone special. He stood out in his accomishments and dedication to caring for others, especially his son, yet was so humble that you'd have to hear of his deeds from others. He has impacted so many lives meaningfully and will not be forgotten. My deepest condolences to Mrs. Kong and Christian. I hope we can all continue his positive spirit and faith.
