Former Cary resident Kyu Nam Pang, 90, died Wednesday, March 15, 2017 at her daughter, Mimi Lamb's, residence in Cornelius, NC.
Born in Ulchin, South Korea on January 13, 1927, she was a devoted mother and raised a family of six daughters and two sons. She was the mainstay of the family.

She legally immigrated to the U.S. in 1983 and lived with her daughter in Anchorage, AK for many years before moving to Cary.
Mrs. Pang is survived by five daughters, two sons, 13 grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Sung Suk Pang and a daughter.
