Members of the Hardy Elementary School community and beyond are raising funds for a Wellesley mom and her two young children following the death last month of her husband, Phillip Wong, at the age of 45.
The crowdfunding campaign will support Yin Yu-Wong and her children Evelyn and Winston as they navigate their future without Phillip, who grew up in Hong Kong, studied industrial design, and worked as a letter carrier locally. The family was stretched financially to pay for Phillip’s medical needs during a 15-month battle vs. non-small cell lung cancer, and Yin has cut back on her work hours to be more available for her children.
According to the fundraising page, “Phillip will be remembered as a pure-hearted family man who was always willing to put others before himself. He was humble and quiet but also loved to laugh and tell jokes to get others to smile.”
So sorry for your loss. Thoughts and Prayers
