Hao Van Ho

Born in An Giang, Vietnam, the son of May V. Ho and Cua T. Huynh, he was a lifelong resident of West Seattle.

He leaves behind his wife of 39 years, Thuan Le; his daughters, Be (Chris), Uyen Vy (Thanh), Francesca (Duy), Ngoc-Kelly (Tri), and Anh (Sam), his grandchildren; Lucas, Stormy, Skyla, Jadian, Jazilyn, Ha, Hanh, Tony, Lee, Bobby, and Anna; great grandchildren; Emily, Lily, Anaiya, Tai, Trajian, Jaxiah and Kaiden; and many close friends.

He was a humble man; he never liked to be the center of attention. In life and now in death, he wouldn't want us to focus on him. He wouldn't want us to focus on the sadness of his death, but instead focus on the happiness in our lives. He would want us to appreciate each other and our future.

A man as humble and loving as he will always be remembered by those of us who knew him and loved him. Although we will miss him, his smile, his pranks, his love, we take consolation in the good feelings of our memories.

Hao dedicated his time to his family as a loving father, grandfather, and great grandfather. In later years, he still delighted in keeping up on the events in the lives of his children and grandchildren. He was a great help to everyone in the family and only wished that he still had the strength to help more.

In honor of his memories, families are contributing all monetary donations to Van-Hoa Temple in Burien, WA.
