Ms. Huihao Zhong (钟惠好) passed away peacefully on July 5, 2022, at the Bayshore Medical Center in Holmdel, NJ, with family by her side.

She was born on the 10^th day of the 7^th month on the Lunar Calendar (or August 11^th on the Gregorian Calendar) in 1932, in Nanhai, Guangdong, China, to Bin Zhong (钟彬) and Laixiao Yan (颜来笑). She married Yi Pan (潘彝) on February 16^th (or the 2^nd day of the 1^st month on the Lunar Calendar) in 1961, in Guangzhou, China. They raised a daughter, Wen Pan (潘雯), and a son, Weidong Pan (潘伟东). Her husband died on May 28^th, 1996. She relocated to the United States on February 15^th, 2008, and lived in Morganville, NJ, until her death at the age of 89.

Ms. Zhong grew up in turbulent times. Her family moved to Hong Kong. She started working when she was 9 years old, while attending night schools to learn how to read and write. Later she moved back to China and became an office administrator in a textile factory until she retired in 1985. At work, she was remembered as a kind and caring colleague. At home, she was a loving and self-sacrificing wife and mother. She was a very hospitable hostess, providing her home for relatives staying for annual family gatherings.

She was a Christian. In 1995, after reading Genesis 1:1, she immediately became a believer. She never wavered in her faith. She regularly attended church services and fellowship meetings at Monmouth Community Christian Church in Middletown, NJ, until she was no longer able. Friends remember her always heartwarming big smiles and humble demeanor. She was very loved and will be missed.

She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Wen Pan and Dongming Qin (覃东明); her son and daughter-in-law, Weidong and Yanping Pan (潘梁燕萍); her five grandchildren, Jenny Qin (覃洁真), Amy Qin (覃善美), Ethan Pan (潘子夏), Everett Pan (潘子新) and Elisa Pan (潘紫盈); her brother and sister-in-law, Shujian Zhong (钟树坚) and Rubao Yan (颜如宝); and her nieces and nephews, Amy Hong, Keith Hong, Kai Fai Hong, Sally Kao, Ivy Hong, Jilan Mou, Anna Pierce, Weizhen Hong, Xiaofeng Foster, Qinghui Zhong, Ying Hong, Zehui Zhong and Binhui Zhong.
