Bao immigrated to America in 1972 where he graduated from Bellflower High School and then attended Cerritos City College and mechanic school.

Bao was a caring friend to many, a loving brother, and above all else a fun loving father who provided nothing but the best for his two children. His children looked up to Bao as their role model and they admired him as their hero. He was always there to offer a helping hand. Bao will be remembered for his sense of humor and generous nature. He will be missed beyond words. He is survived by his daughter Michelle and his son Richard.
