James W. Hong, 43, of Southborough and formerly of Boston lost his courageous battle to lung cancer on Thursday, March 1, 2012. He died peacefully with dignity, surrounded by his family.
James was the beloved and adored husband of Suzanne Brown Hong and irreplaceable Daddy to Corey, Chloe and Haley.

He had wonderful nieces and nephews, Rilie and Hannah Brown; Oscar and Owen Hong; Isabelle Hong and cherished friends, Ashesh and Louise Shah and their children Isabelle and Maxamillian.
James will be best remembered for his kind, generous heart of gold and cared deeply for his family and friends. He was a child at heart and truly enjoyed the small things in life.
