1938–24 September 2020.

August 05, 2015 — Summer Camp ESL, Da Lat.
August 2017 — Summer Camp ESL, Phu Yen.

She was my family, the one whom I could share anything to.
I ran to her anytime I need someone cause I knew she would welcome me and listen to me without judging.
She forgave me before I asked for because she had a big love in her heart.
She approved almost all my requests.

Without her, I might lose my soul.
Without her, I might not meet my wife.
Without her, I might be a bad young person for long.

She told me about the hardest moment in her life when her husband had died and left her with 5 children.
She encouraged me on how to enjoy “heaven on earth” by returning to my relationship with God.
She advised me to study to become a pastor.
She came to my engagement date in spite of a long distance.
She sang at my wedding, the song “love me tender”.
She cooked for my parents.
She visited my daughter when she was born.
She cared about me.

She worked till the last day of her life for Christ.
She led and managed 5 ministries.
She was a great leader and a humble, disciplined, and inspiring example.
She was the strongest woman I’ve ever met.

As her favorite verse in the Bible: “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:21.
She now is in heaven.
She finished her race faithfully.

The Bible she gave me.

I had known you for 10 years on earth.
I will see you again in heaven.

Go Vap, 26 September 2020.
Your preference son.
