Chong P. Rhee, a beloved and devoted husband, father, and grandfather, passed away on March 18, 2026, at the age of 83.
He will be forever remembered for his deep love and steady devotion to his family and friends, who meant the world to him.
He found joy in life’s simple pleasures—golfing with friends, traveling to new places, going on long drives, and admiring the beauty of nature. He was also a lifelong learner, always curious and eager to grow. Born in Korea, he made his home in the United States, first in New York City and later in Denver. There, he built a life grounded in hard work, integrity, and determination as a business owner.
Family was the center of his life. He shared a deep and enduring bond with his wife, his partner in everything—they truly were inseparable, sharing life side by side in all its moments, both big and small. Together, they built a life rooted in love, partnership, and unwavering support. As a father and grandfather, he was devoted, caring, and supportive. He also cherished his friendships and nurtured them over decades.
His kindness, generosity, and steadfast presence will be deeply missed by his family and all who knew and loved him.
