Dear Grand Master Cho,
When I began taking your classes I was a young child. You took me in and showed me what it meant to be a good person and a strong spirit. I still practice the things you taught me from youth to adulthood. You were a father figure to me when no one else was. I deeply miss you and I pray that you are in the afterlife that you deserve. Thank you for bringing structure and guidance to me and all of your students.

Dear Grand Master Cho,
I knew I wanted to become one of your students from a very young age (5 or 6) when my brother attended your classes, and it would be many years later before my path would lead me back to your dojang.  I knew at once when I started my first class that I was hooked and would stay for as long as I could.  Thank-you so much for showing me the wondrous, and beautiful art of Tae Kwon Do.  Through your patient teaching, I have been able to grow so much – physically, mentally, and spiritually.  It has been my honor to be one of your students, and I will think of you each time I answer loudly “Ki-ya!”.  I also pledge to you that I will bring honor to you & your school by giving my all.  I will miss you very much, but know that you are now at rest smiling down on family, students Kam-sa-ham-ni-da Gwang-Jang-Nim Cho.

To this day I still cannot recall what got me to enter Cho's Tae Kwon Do the first time those many years ago, but when I started I would not stop.  Even though work and other things took me away from Master Cho, I always returned.  Master Cho helped me find a self confidence that I did not know I even had.  After starting class, friends told me I was changing when I didn't even notice it.  I owe this to Master Cho and his years of training.  I have seen how he has had the same impact on many of his students over the years.  His discipline, focus, and attention to each student will be greatly missed.  I know he cannot be replaced but I will do my best to continue to teach the students the way he did and hopefully I will be able to live up to his standards.  Though you have left us, your legacy will continue on in your students.  My deepest sympathy to your family.  Know that they will always be in our prayers.

Words are hard to come by that can properly tell what Grandmaster Cho has meant to me and my family. He will missed by all. It has been my honor to train and teach under our master for all these many years. To witness how he worked with and molded so many kids has been a wonder to watch. He will be sorely missed and cannot be replaced. Every day since this loss when I walk in to the dojo I can still feel his presence and I know his sharp eye is on me and I will do my best to carry on and teach as he taught us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart does not seem enough to say but knowing how he felt about us his students, knowing we will continue on and he will live forever in our hearts.
My deepest sympathy to your family.

Rest in Peace Master Cho. You were part of my most important transition in my life in terms of health and fitness and I will never forget the experience I had being your student in martial arts.

Grandmaster Cho,

I still remember my very first class at the dojang. Your stoic presence and few words definitely made me a bit intimidated at first, but I quickly learned that you had a love for all of your students and wanted us to all do the best we could possibly do. "Harder than that" was a phrase that you said quite often, and it pushed me to work harder. Things that I learned from you have been embedded in my heart and mind, and I am forever grateful. You have been like a father to me in more ways than you probably know, and I always felt welcome in your family. I thank you for that, and will miss you and your teachings. May you rest in peace as your legacy lives on.

It was an incredible experience to learn from Master Cho. An experience that has shaped me into the person I am today and one I will not soon forget. Thank you for all the great lessons and memories.

Grand Master Cho, May you rest in peace!
Although I was your student for only few months, I would say that your hardwork, dedication, self discipline were a great inspiration to me. I thank you for that. 
My deepest sympathy goes to your family and other friends.

Dear Grandmaster Cho,
Thank you for all you taught me. You were like a second father to me. I will never forget the things you taught me and I will never forget you.
From,
Dylan Marasigan your student

Grandmaster Cho,

You and your family have known my brother and I for more than half our lives and we can both honestly say that we wouldn't be who we are if it wasn't for you. You taught us what it meant to be disciplined, hard working, to respect others and to love the art you taught us. We can't say how deeply you impacted us, or how much we will miss you. You have touched our lives in a way that we can't explain. Thank you so much for everything. You will be so missed.

Rest in peace Grandmaster Cho.  You leave behind a lasting legacy that will be carried forward by your family, and your students for generations.

Our Deepest Sympathy to Grand Master Cho's Family:

It has been an honor for our family to know Mr.Cho. We have the utmost respect and admiration for him. He is a true master, disciplinarian, and mentor but most of all a caring and humble person. 

His passion and willingness to share his expertise in Tae-Kwon-Do to his student will forever be missed, but the lessons he taught his students shall live forever. 

May he rest in peace.

Grand Master Cho, you were a good and nice man. I liked being your student and I won't forget your lessons. I will miss you a lot. Your student forever.

A perfect balance of task master and gentle heart,  he created a safe container from which my skills and confidence blossomed. In his care, I was forever changed and continuously blessed.  

I will always be grateful that I had the great fortune to be one of his sutdents.

Dear Grand Master Cho,

You were always an inspiring teacher to us and always encouraged us to kick harder and punch faster during our training sessions. We know you must have wanted to say a lot more to us if you could but I want to reassure you that words were not needed to let us know how much you cared for us as your students. It was our pleasure to have you as our Tae Kwon Do Grand Master and you will always live on in our hearts.

With much love,
Karen and Jennifer Chan

Dear Grandmaster Cho, it was a great honor and great privilege to be trained by you.  In these difficult moments my thoughts and prayers are with you and your wonderful family. Rest in peace… I'll miss you so much…

Master Cho, the day I was looking for a Tae Kwon Do instructor, destiny brought me to you.  Before I could speak, I saw you in blue uniform; I knew you were the one that I was going to learn from. I didn't have a second thought and said: “yes, I want to do Tae Kwon Do”, Then you said “come tomorrow……” you handed me a set of white uniform……That was a great Friday of my life.  

I am so fortunate and with such great honor to be one of your many students. You will always to be remembered, your spirit will always with us. 

May peace and love with you and your family!

Grandmaster Cho helped to lay so many foundations for me as a child that make me the person I am today. He taught me to always have perseverance . He taught me to be disciplined. Most importantly he taught me to have an indomitable spirit, the attitude that I'll never give up no matter how hard it gets. These type of lessons are something that will stay with me forever and is why Grandmaster Cho will always be remembered.

Grand Master Cho, it was a great honor to be trained by you and most of all to get to know the wonderful man you are. I will miss you and honor you forever. May God keep you in his glory.

What a privilege it was for my sons, Jackson and Sammy and myself, to train under you Master Cho. Spending many years training in your dojang helped my sons become more confident physically and respectful. We always admired your dedication to the art of Taekwondo but mostly we respected and loved you and your family. Thank you.

Grandmaster Cho, it was a great honor to be at your school and learn from the best in the martial arts. Thank you.

Grandmaster Cho, thank-you for the excellent seven years of training, my thoughts and prays are with you and your family.

To an indomitable spirit that will live on eternally in all our hearts. God bless you always grandmaster Kyu ha cho

When I was just eight years old I resigned from a prestigious ballet school in pursuit to study tae kwon do with you and your  children Christine, Jason, and my very own brother Christian. Little did I know at that time, just what a tremendous impact you would have on my life with such an unforgettable journey through the strength and beauty of martial arts. Each day after school I was in your care practicing tae kwon do. Year after year, belt after belt, my heart not only grew with just tae kwon do, but with the forever bond that was forming between myself and your family. Even when I left for college which caused my absence from tae kwon do for quite sometime, you welcomed me back when I was ready to return. Again and again. No matter how much time has lapsed or how much distance seperated me, once I became a cho student I became part of a tae kwon do family for life. You breathed life not only into me but all of your students. You gave us the priceless gift of discipline and an indomitable spirit to last beyond a lifetime. Thank you from the entirety of my heart for all the years, memories, laughs, cries, "stern looks," lectures, push-ups for misbehaving, and forever joy you blessed me with in this world. May god continuously bless and guide you as you pass on. I find comfort that you are in peace and will no longer suffer, but you will still be immensely missed by so many. RIP eternally Grandmaster Cho <3

I remember the first time I met Grand Master Cho.  I was impressed by how peaceful, and confident he was.  He struck me as someone that was very respected.  I will miss being his student.  I will miss seeing his smile.  He had a great smile.  

Thank You Grand Master Cho,
Carver Cebrun

Dear Master Cho, thank you so very much for your great teachings, encouragement, patience and inspiration. You enhanced my abilities to show respect to all people, promote a friendly atmosphere, to stand up to all untruths and to always try my best for my Grand Master. Thank you Grand Master Cho for your encouragement, friendliness and warm smiles. May Heaven provide you the finest resting place and I believe a new place to serve our heavenly Father, With love and respect to you, Mrs. Cho and family. Your student, Clara Cebrun

Dear Grandmaster Cho

Our hearts are heavy with sadness knowing you are gone. You and your family have been part of our lives ever since my wife and I joined your school in 2006. 
Your strength, perseverance and indomitable spirit will always be remembered but also your kindness and humility. My wife and I will always remember your smile for her and our son each time we saw you. 
We thank you for 8 wonderful years and promise to honor your teachings and legacy.

Your students,
Ed and Nayi Aminaria

Grandmaster Cho, to me and my brother, you were the driving force that led us to give it our all during training. Tae-Kwon-Do has become a part of our lives, and the constant drilling during class has made my technique instinct. I will never forget the Christmas of 2013, when my family and I coincidentially saw you on vacation at the sea. It was a good time, and you were very relaxed. We were all having a great time.

On those days, you became more than just our teacher, but our friend. My brother and I will train hard and fight hard. We hope to one day represent you with the coming of our eventual black belts. We are appreciative of all that you gave to us.

May God guide you to heaven to live peacefully. Your legacy will continue on and your indomitable spirit will always remain in our hearts, bodies, and souls. God bless.

Dear Grand Master Cho I miss you very much. I thank you for everything you taught me.

Master Cho, I am so fortunate to have gotten to know you. I remember sitting in the back as a white belt and wondering as a child how long would it be until I could sit as a black belt. Through these years you taught me discipline, honor, but most of all kindness to those around you. 7 years later, sitting as a first degree you not only were my teacher but also part of my family. Through good and bad I continued going to tae-kwon-do, and now you will be forever be by my side in whatever path life may take me. I am so honored and grateful to have known you, who always had a smile ready for me. 

Your most grateful student, who will honor your legacy forever,
Bibiana Toro

that can be found in every person

You will forever be in my heart

Dear Grandmaster Cho
My son and I had great honor to be trained under you. You not only trained us in physical activities but you also trained us on how to live modest life. You showed us what modesty is. It was a great honor to meet grand master but more than that we were honored to meet humble person. We miss you but your teachings will always be with us. 
Rajesh and Pranav Thatte

To a wonderful man who welcomed me into his family with few words but in the end let me know through touch and frequent requests for my visits how much he loved me. I'm glad you're at peace and with God now - a loving father, husband and grandfather. The girls will miss you and so will everyone else. Your life was amazing and I was blessed to be a part of it. Your loving daughter-in-law -- Mary

Dear Grandmaster Cho, Gwang-jang-nim, my teacher and friend, I will miss your ways, I will miss you. Thank you for all the opportunities you provided me to grow and become a better human being. You challenged me and gave me the space to be my best self in your presence. I hope that we can all find the strength of character and will to do likewise for others. I hope will we meet again. I love you. God keep you.

It was an honor to have trained under a real legend and grandmaster. Your lessons were a formative part of my childhood (1994-2001), as I transformed from shy socially awkward wimp to competent black belt. I still practice martial arts even to this very day. It's time to bow out one last time.

Grandmaster Cho, I am so thankful to have been given the opportunity to train under you and be an instructor at your dojang.  I'm grateful for your daughter Christine for introducing me to the world of tae kwon do.  You taught me self-discipline, respect, and helped push me physically as well as mentally.  You and Mrs. Cho have welcomed me into your family with open arms, and you've always treated me like a daughter.  I am blessed to have known you and your family for all these years.  Your legacy will continue to live on in your students, your children, your grandchildren, and generations to come.  Words cannot express how much you will be missed...

As one of your early students in 1982 I will always look back fondly at my time under your instruction. I know that in your later years you became quite an inspiration for my sister as well. Your life and your school shall always have a special place in our family.

You will always live in our hearts and our prayers.Thank for your great times and support you gave my son and for been a role model. May God bless your wife and the rest of the family on this day and always. Rest In Peace Great Man.

Master Cho, what an amazing life you led!  You have touched so many lives including my family's and I am so blessed and honored to have known you.  I must admit that growing up, whenever I would come to Linda's tests, I was very intimidated by you but I could still see you had such dignity, compassion, and dedication to your craft, your students, and your family.  I promise to share this with Chloe and Layla so they always remember what a great man their grandfather was.  Love, Stephanie.
