Sadden to hear of your loss. Wishing the family peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead & loving memories to forever warm your hearts. Our deepest condolences.

Words cannot express the sorrow we feel for the passing of our dearest brother, uncle and great uncle. We could only share a few years together in Vietnam before our family was divided by the war in 1975. At that time we thought that we had already lost you. But we were blessed to have been reunited with you. We are thankful for that time we were given.

Please accept our heartfelt condolences. We want you to know that we are just a phone call away.

I feel honored and ever so blessed to be part of the Phamily. Mr. Loc Pham was like a second father to me and from day one he accepted me for who I was and helped me blossom into a fine young lady. He always seemed proud to be a wonderful husband, father, and grandpa. His pure sincere smile, and sparkle in his eyes would light up any room. He will forever be in our hearts, and deeply missed.
