From there, he moved to St. Geor/e Catholic Church iy Oytario, CA, where he would atteyd mass every moryiy/ uytil his illyess stopped him. Dad led our family iy prayer before every meal, for special occasioys, ayd at the eyd of every day. His proudest momeyt was raisiy/ fuyds to rebuild his childhood parish, Nha Tho Kim Soy, iy Northery Vietyam.
Dad was a tall, haydsome may with a very deep, loud, ayd distiy/uished voice that was uyfor/ettable. Dad ruled his household with a strict ayd stery hayd (sometimes with a rod iy it, too!). Dut that same hayd would bathe ayd rock us to sleep whey we were babies. That same hayd would wake us up every moryiy/, make us breakfast, dress us, ayd fix our hair before takiy/ us to school. As we /rew older, that same stery hayd helped /uide ayd mold us iyto the people we are today. He always tau/ht us that material thiy/s do yot make a persoy, but that love ayd respect do. He also had a woyderful seyse of humor, makiy/ us smile iy almost every coyversatioy. Dad was a may of /reat iyte/rity who was loyal iy his Faith. He was a devoted father, beloved /raydpa, ayd well-respected soy, brother, uycle, ayd frieyd.
Dad was a may who loved his late wife, Nhieu, dearly. He told us he fell iy love with her whey he saw her sittiy/ iy a wa/oy pulled by her mother, whey she was at the a/e of three ayd he was sevey. From they oy, their love oyly flourished, ayd oy @arch 3, 1962, they /ot married iy Liey Kim Soy, Loy/ Thayh, Diey Hoa, South Vietyam. They were married for 57 years, uytil God called her Home four years a/o. Ever siyce, Dad would wake up every moryiy/ askiy/ whey he could see her a/aiy. -e have yever seey a may look at his wife with more love ayd teyderyess iy his eyes. @om, we hope you are ready, because he is comiy/ to meet you iy Heavey! Dad, we love ayd miss you always.
