Wishing Soo, a Happy Heavenly Birthday your in my prayers always.

It´s been a year since Dr. Hong´s passing. It doesn´t feel like it was that long ago when We first met at Catholic Medical School in 1955 when we were students. My wife and I also had the pleasure to meet him and his wife on numerous occasion while he was working as a plastic surgeon In Albany, NY. My wife and I will always remember Dr. Hong as a kind loving man who loved helping others. Although he has gone ahead to heaven we will always remember and cherish his kindness and...

I found myself thinking about Dr. Hong the other day and so I discovered that he had passed last February. I am so sorry for the family's loss of this humble and gifted surgeon. In 1978, I sustained serious injury to my face as a result of a car accident. Dr. Hong repaired the damage so well repaired that it was never noticeable. I will always be thankful to him for his gentleness and kindness. I am so sorry for your loss.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

So so sorry to hear about your loss. I never got the chance to meet your father, husband, grandfather, uncle - but from knowing Jeana and her family and reading this here, it is clear he lived a beautiful life. A hero to help raise 4 daughters! I'm certain his many grandchildren loved him dearly and he lives on in all of you. Will keep you all in my thoughts.

Amazing accomplishments and great life. Our thoughts are with you and the family.

Although my heart aches at your passing, I thank God you were my Elder Brother, God speed Soo, you and your beloved family are in my prayers.
