OBITUARY

Kun Cha Bush

4 December, 1942 – 3 December, 2025
IN THE CARE OF

Bayside Community Mortuary

Kun Cha Bush was born in 1942 in Chong-Bokto, South Korea. During the mourning after and during the wars, raised in the countryside with her mom,dad, one sister and 3 brothers. She experienced an early loss of one her brother during the transitioning of the wars from the past, due to drowning.

Residing in the countryside, she left her home at a young age to support her family at a dress shop to help out her parents.

She was an activist in Korean politics who was involved in a demonstration riot where she got her index finger shot by a stray bullet.

She transitioned her native belief to Christianity and was on fire for the Lord Jesus Christ. Laying hands and healing many.

She moved to an apartment complex and found her new calling when she met James Wade Bush who she got married to during his service in Korea.

Kuncha and James later adopted a son named Michael J Bush, where they embarked on a new destiny to visit my father James Wade Bush's families out in Florida, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Ohio. Traveling all throughout America, they lived in Colorado for a little while, earning her driver's licence, also working for a doughnut shop and a salad factory. She then came to California first living with close relatives at Oakland then found a place at Monterey Peninsula, Marina. Where she settled and fell in love with the place.

She loved being socially active in her work with the Fort Ord Commissary, as a grocery bagger later becoming a bagger manager, which she took pride in working until she was unable, due to old age, and mental decline.

She spent the rest of her golden years at the house with me until she fell and had hip complications.

She later spent over 4 months at the rehabilitation center to go home, but found unresponsive one night and passed away in the facility peacefully.
