Michael Yoo Obituary
Michael is survived by his ever-devoted wife, Katherine Yoo and his three daughters, Dr. Vanessa Coffey (Dr. Patrick Coffey), Christine Yoo, and Michelle Bremehr (Daniel Bremehr). "Halbee's" memory lives on in his five cherished grandchildren: Keegan Coffey, Owen Coffey, Olivia Coffey, Grace Yoo, and Liam Bremehr.
Michael instilled in his daughters a deep love of music and an even deeper love of punctuality.
We love you, dad.
We love you, Halbee.
