Chang Yo Lee

August 15, 1939 - April 29, 2015

Chang Yo Lee was born on August 15, 1939 in Seoul, South Korea. She came to the United States and began her life in Bronx, NY and a few years later moved to Yonkers where she has resided for the past twenty two years.  She was always a stay home mother and raised four children. Upon her arrival to the Bronx, she also stayed at home and raised all her grandchildren. Her grandchildren’s fondest memory of her was when she would take her grandchildren David, Jimmy, Jane and Erin to the parks and pick them up from school and walk them to McDonalds. Even moving to Yonkers, her grandchildren Jane, Erin and Sean’s fondest memory was her taking them for long walks on their scooters and bikes and taking them to Nathan’s to play in the arcade. Chang Yo loved to keep herself busy and was always active. She loved to wake up every morning and go for a morning walk and enjoyed her morning coffee at Dunkin Donuts with her close friends. She was an amazing cook and loved to make her grandchildren’s favorite food and dishes. She was a devoted mother and an exceptional grandmother to seven beautiful grandchildren. She religiously and faithfully prayed all the time for her family. There was nothing more important to her than her family. As long as she had her family, she couldn’t ask for more. Her family meant everything and the world to her. Her four year long fight with cancer ended April 29, 2015. Chang Yo Lee will be deeply missed by all her family and friends. She was truly a great individual and servant of God. She is survived through her sons Young Sik Park, Yeong Minn Pak and her daughters Yong Suk Cheon and Sue Ran Chung and her grandchildren David Park, Jimmy Cheon, Jane Pak, Erin Pak, Tommy Cheon, Sammy Cheon and Sean Chung.
