Dear Ann & Sons,
I just wanted to express my sympathy on the passing of Kon. We were classmates at EHS & I have many fond memories of him. Though we lost contact soon after our graduation, I can tell from reading the other comments posted here that Kon continued to be a kind and caring man throughout his life. My prayers are with your family.
