Hen Thi Mai, age 77, passed away peacefully October 5, 2022. She was born August 6,1945 in Bac Lieu, Vietnam. She married her Village sweetheart Thinh Van Mai, in 1965 who preceded her in death in 2016 and her oldest son Hue in 1975. Hen lived a wonderful life with her family escaping the fall of Saigon in 1975 moving with her late husband to America. She was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. Hen carved out a family of tradition in a country that was as foreign as it can be but provided a stable environment for her kids and family to succeed in life.
Hen is survived by her sons Nghia (Jeff), Thao (Tony), Thuan (Mike), Hoa (Dave), Richard, and daughter Nga (Mandy); plus 23 grandchildren and her many nephews and nieces. All of these she loved and touched deeply.
A funeral service for Hen will be held Tuesday, October 11, 2022 at 10:00 AM at Westlawn-Hillcrest Funeral Home, 5701 Center St, Omaha, Nebraska 68106.
