Kevin Wong aka "Kutz"'s Obituary
Kevin Wong passed away at 5:04 AM on Tuesday, July 14, 2015, at University Medical Center in Las Vegas at the age of 20.He was born on August 13, 1994, in Fremont, California, to Sharon and Francis Wong. Throughout his early youth, he displayed excellence in both school and sports. His biggest educational achievement was winning 5th place in the third grade Math Olympics. Soccer was his strength, where he participated in the Division III city travel team. He also was a part of the Fremont Christian and American High School soccer teams.His two main passions growing up were rock music, where he would frequently play his guitar and create cover videos, and sports, specifically the San Jose Sharks where he made sure not to miss watching any games. During his later teenager years, he found two new callings in electronic dance music and graffiti art. He loved and was proud of blasting his music wherever he went and regularly attended raves and events. However, he devoted the majority of his time to art. Through all the effort in tagging his name “KUTZ” all around the Bay Area, he built an unyielding reputation and recognition for both himself and his crew. He inspired many to pursue their passion despite the risks, and the legacy he left behind has had an everlasting impact on the community.Though his life was short, he made sure to make the most out of it by living like there was never a tomorrow. Anyone who knew him always mentioned his humor, character and smile. He was a great son, brother, family member and friend, and he will never be forgotten.Kevin is survived by his parents, Sharon and Francis, his brother, Brandon, and Grandma. He is also survived by aunts, uncles and cousins from both sides of the family.Memorial Service and Burial Tuesday, July 28, 2015, 10am Skylawn Funeral Home and Memorial Park Route 35 at Highway 92, San Mateo, CA 94402 (650)349-441110:00 Welcome………………………………………………………………….Ruth Chao 10:20 Eulogy…………………………………………..Doris Zane & Victor Tham** 10:40 Eulogy…………………………………………………………………..Jason Ortega 10:50 Eulogy…………………………………….Diego Torres & Alexis Ricamonte 11:10 Eulogy………………………………………………………..Michael McCormick 11:20 Eulogy………………………………………………………………..Chris Martinez 11:30 Closing……………………………………………………………….Brandon Wong ** All cousins (Aimee Williamson, Andrew Wong, Aaron Wong, Craig Ng, Tiffany Ng, Kim Hwe) will stand up for the eulogy Viewing of Remain / Closing and Sealing of Casket 12:00 Burial………………………………………..Closing Prayer by Dr. Edmond Pi Pallbearers: Brandon Wong Victor Tham Andrew Wong Aaron Wong Craig Ng Neiman Moore1:00 Reception to follow at Little Sichuan, 168 E 4th Ave, San Mateo, CA 94402 (650)345-9168Please RSVP via email to Sharon Wong at [email protected] or text at (510)449-8067
