October 20, 1935 — April 11, 2019

Huatang Chen, of Belmont, died Thursday, April 11, 2019 in Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He was 83.

Born October 20, 1935 in Ningbo, China, he was a son of the late Shengjiang Chen and Juqing Jiang. He and his wife, Xiuying Tao, immigrated to the United States in 1998.
