For Mary and family, I was so shocked to learn of the deaths of your husband and father so close in time to each other. Although I did not know Tuan, I’ve understood that you and he have a loving family which should support you during this difficult time. Please accept my condolences.

Tuan was kind and gentle and generous right up to the end. My sister is lucky she had such a sweet husband.

Daddy, people have been so kind with their thoughts and messages. A lot of people have been sending food, and it’s making me so happy. It’s reminding me of what you said to Victor when he asked you if he could propose to me. You said, “Oh, Suzi. She real easy to take care of. Just feed her.”
I love you, Dad.

Tuan was a kind, friendly man who I feel very blessed to have known. My heart goes out to my dear cousin Mary, all their children and their families, and to all of Tuan’s family. I wish I could pay my respects in person, but will be with you all in my heart. I loved Tuan and will always remember him with great respect and affection.

Dear Tuan, as a neighbor I associated with you through your family and our profession. I’ll always remember the chats we had about our kids and their accomplishments, the joy you expressed in learning about my kids and our discussions about the corporate world you and I were victims of yet survived over the years. I am honoured to have known you. You will be missed Tuan.. R.I.P
