George C. Wong, 98, of Chestnut Ridge, NY passed away on Tuesday, February 1, 2022.  He was the devoted father of Victoria Wong, Gloria Wong, Daniel Wong and Donald Wong. He was a cherished grandfather of Angela, Dion, Sean, Dylan, Brittany, Arienne, Danielle and Matthew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

George was a first generation Chinese American born in San Jose, CA.\u00a0 He proudly served in the US Army during WWII and was a Purple Heart recipient. He later moved to NY and worked as a Ma\u00eetre D at many fine restaurants such as the Opera House and Tappan Hill restaurant.\u00a0\u00a0 While raising his kids together with his ex-wife Kam Fung, he managed to provide his kids things that he could not afford, such as buying his daughter and son musical instruments while they were going to school.\u00a0 He always had a love and passion for horses and since he couldn\u2019t afford one, he would go to many different racetracks to watch them race.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 George enjoys family gatherings such as graduations, birthday parties and holidays.  He enjoys eating and spending time with his grandkids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
