Frank Kang Chang, of Edison died Wednesday, January 16, 2019 at JFK Hospital, surrounded by his loving family. He was born in Shanghai, China, coming to the United States in 1960. He was raised in New York City and attended City College of New York where he met his beautiful bride, Elizabeth Gee Mah in 1967.
