Nghiem Thi Tran

Ms. Tran lived a long history on the painful S-shaped land of Vietnam: through feudalism, French colonialism, Japanese coup, the end of the Vietnam monarchy, and the fierce Vietnam war between the two regions. She represented the quality of a Vietnamese woman who was willing to suffer and work hard to raise eleven children through hardship while remaining faithful to her late husband. Now her children have succeeded in many areas of American society.

For all of her life, Ms. Tran revered God and loved others. She always loved, helped, and devoted her life to the poor, even though she was poorer than them. Her faith in God was absolute. She will be remembered for showing everyone what it meant to revere God and love other people.
