With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Yun Park on January 7, 2024, in

Hartsdale, NY. Born on January 15, 1947, in Seoul, South Korea, Yun was the daughter

of Young Jay and Bo Ok Kim. She graduated of Ewha Womans University, Seoul, South

Yun called New York and Florida home for much of her adult life. She was not only a

devoted wife and mother but also a talented artist. Yun approached life with a vibrant

spirit, always eager to explore new experiences and embrace the adventures life had to

offer.

A true trailblazer for her family, Yun introduced them to the joys of tennis, skiing, golf

and swimming. Her love for travel ignited countless journeys with family and later with

her husband, creating cherished memories in countries around the world.

Yun was also an accomplished and celebrated artist. Her paintings and sculptures

adorned galleries in Soho and Chelsea, NY throughout the 1990s and was a member of

the Korean American Contemporary Artists Association.

Yun married Dr. Hee Myoung Park in 1970 who predeceased her in 2021. She is

survived by daughter Ellen Park and fiancée Scott Makosiej, daughter Susan Park and husband

George Fang, grandson Luke Fang and her sisters Jin Kim, Dong Bow Hyun and Dong

Hye Kim.

During this challenging time, we hope Yun Park will be remembered for the adventurous

spirit she infused into life, leaving an indelible mark on the world. May she rest in eternal

peace.
