Not sure what to say?

Sad to learn of this so late. Wing and my dad were army buddies in Ft Hood TX, where I was born. Back in MI they remained in close touch, and we were always treated like royalty when we visited the restaurant. Fondest regards to all of you from the Hogan family, now in Tucson, AZ.

What a great guy !!!! I used to live next door at the apartments and come in every night. He always treated me well. May he rest in peace

Sorry to hear about this! I just heard from my Mom - Sachie Yee, who worked for many many years as waitress at the steak house, and of course I and many other family members worked there in many roles as well! Condolences, love and hugs to your family - I hope all are well - and I will always remember Wing Hong's smiling face!

I had the pleasure of being neighbors with Mr. Hong for nearly 15 years in Commerce twp Michigan. He was a great man and fantastic neighbor. He will be missed. My deepest condolences to the Hong family.

Our whole family was very saddened when we heard of Wing's passing. We have been patrons of all of his restaurants starting in Southfield over 50 yrs. ago and continue to enjoy the best Chinese food from the carryout restaurant in Commerce. One of our fondest memories is Wing delivering our order for our office Chrismas party back in the 70's and 80's and his wonderful smile. Wing and Nina in addition to serving the best Chinese food were the most wonderful hosts.

Again our family...

Our entire family was very sorry to hear of Wing's passing. We all had been patrons of all of his great restaurants over the years starting in Southfield 50 yrs. ago. Wing catered many of our office Christmas parties and we continue to enjoy the wonderful food at the Commerce carryout. Our sincere condolences to Nina and family.

We started eating there just after it opened. I remember when it was being built. We had dinner there every couple of weeks. It was always busy on the weekends. Standing room only waiting for a table. ABC and Shrimps in Lobster Sauce were my favorites. My parents had a camera shop in Farmington, so it was great when that location opened. We were able to have dinner there after work. I moved to FL in 1982, but every time I visited MI we were sure to drop by and have a meal. They just don't...

So sorry to hear this! We were kids in the Washington Heights neighborhood, where Wing lived also in the early years of the restaurant. We would ride our bikes up to the restaurant, go inside to the round table in the back, and then go into the kitchen for our egg rolls and fried rice. He was a friend to everyone who entered; a genuine man. Riding by his house on our bicycles, he and the kids always said hi and smiled. Condolences to the family.

I went to Cass Tech the same time Wing did. When he opened the Southfield restaurant my family and I (two boys) would eat there once or twice a month. They always ordered "the usual" (shrimp & lobster sauce). When we would travel and eat Chinese food anywhere else, They would order the "usual" and inevitably they would say, "Not as good as Wing Hong." He was a sweet man and a smart and successful person. Not only in business but in life. If ever I needed a lift in spirits, I would spend a few...
