I have very fond memories of your dad’s energy, and his guitar playing especially during the holidays.  He was definitely always fun to be around.  He was always super polite, soft spoken and jolly.  I also remember he use to always call me a good girl - haha. Definitely alway made me feel way more important than I was. He always had such nice things to say and definitely always made me feel welcomed to the family.  I loved that you mentioned his use of idioms in your eulogy because that definitely reminded me of him. He was always happy, engaging, funny, easy going, and very kind. Your father was such a good man an he and your mom raised such wonderful good children. I know all of you made him proud.  My family and I send love and positive energy to all of you. 

I remember in 2014 I wasn't the man I am today, and I really needed spiritual support and did not know much of my religion (Buddhism). I then heard from my parents U Thar Gyi and Aunty Tu Mar was going to Vipassana Meditation center. I wanted to learn more about it so I contacted U Thar Gyi. He took his time explaining about meditation and the benefits of it. Due to the conversation we had, I decided to try it out and went to the meditation center and he even helped me by giving me a ride there. During the trip we spoke a lot, and from those many conversation I learned so much more about Buddhism, benefits of meditation, even why we pray. I have since prayed and meditate almost every single day. I felt as that trip changed my life forever. I will forever be thankful and indebted to the kindness and the wisdom he bestowed upon me, that sent me towards the right path in becoming a better and a good man that I am today. Rest in piece U Thar Gyi.

My deepest sympathies and sorrows for your family. 

Ko Thar Gyi was kind soul. The thing I will always remember about every time I saw him he would ask "how many girlfriends do you have now.." Funny guy. Brings a smile to my face when I remember that moment. 

Love, 
Myint Family

Uncle Thargyi ( Ba Ba) was a man of excellent temperament and nature. Uncle  was not only a guide but a young friend at heart. I will sincerely miss his vibrant laugh that politeness.  He was in fact a man of his words and his wisdom was inspiring. I will always treasure the memories that we had. 

We never truly lose the people that we love, even to death. 

Love,
Deanna ( Thaukyar)Suntaree 

You are my cousin by blood, but I always treat you as a big brother by love. Never met a person like you who is always down to earth, humble, honest and selfless. Family comes first and always happy with what he gets. Never complain about anything and never stress about his life. I’ll miss you dearly my brother. Especially whenever I come back home from Africa, I always call you and catch up! Love you and Rest in Peace my big brother. Till we meet  again! 🙏🏼
