Mrs. Chang was such an inspiring teacher. I learned so much from her musicality and am honored to have been her student. I am very sorry for your loss. Deep regards and warm wishes to you and your family.

I am saddened by the loss of your dear wife and mother. Helen always had a smile and tremendous poise even days she wasn't feeling well. I feel privileged to have known her, and so wish I had known her better. You are all in my thoughts and prayers as your mourn her passing.

I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Chang's passing. She was always so kind and gentle. I used to love going over to the Chang's after school to play-she was so welcoming. My condolences to Samantha (I've read your books and am so proud to have known you) and the rest of the family.

I was fortunate to be a student of Mrs. Chang from when I was a small child through high school. I wasn't a technically gifted student, but I truly loved music and it was apparent in how I played.

We are so sad for your loss, Prof. Chang. Mrs. Chang was such a great person. She will live on in our memories forever. Our hearts go out to you and your family.

Mrs. Chang was a gifted teacher to all the children who sat on her bench. She was a role model to me, a mother who had the privilege to marvel at her talent teaching my four children, week after week, and year after year. I learned so much from her about steadfast guidance, consistent mentoring, patient discipline, music appreciation, commitment to quality, and gentle kindness. She was one of the best!

We were deeply sadden by the news of Mrs. Chang's passing. She taught so many students more than just music. Her kindness, encouragement, persistence for improvement, high standard, and appreciation for hard work have no doubt left a long lasting effect on all of her students. Please accept our condolences. The beautiful memories that Mrs. Chang left us will always live in our hearts.

Our whole family misses this great teacher and wonderfully warm person. She opened a whole world to the next generation. She taught students how they actually could work hard to master something beautiful. She is resting now.
