Went to look for my old friend on Facebook and was saddened to see the news of his passing. Manh was an awesome person and I'm glad I got to know him. 

The minute he came to our team, he became the star of the team. His work ethic was unequalled and he coupled it with a cheerful spirit and was always willing to help to make everyone better.  During breaks, he would smoke us at ping-pong.

I enjoyed our conversations with him telling me about his family's story coming here from Vietnam and me asking him to teach me to say random things in Vietnamese.  One of the most memorable people I've had the fortune to cross paths with.

My condolences to his family and friends.  Thank you for sharing him with us - a great, great human being who will be missed.

Rest in Peace my friend. You were taken far to early. Was always a pleasure to vist with and work with you over the years. Always helpful with whatever was need and with a smile.

  I had the pleasure of working with Manh for a number of years.  Manh was the most friendly, helpful and happy person I’ve ever known.  He always impressed me with his dedication to the work he did as well as his great attitude. No matter what the task was, he would analyze it, provide feedback and then complete it to a high level with quality and speed. 
  The most impressive aptitude of Manh was his energetic personality and endless smile.  His personality will be sorely missed by whoever knew him.  I envy his family for having such a person even if it was not as long as it should have been.

Manh was more than just a Colleague, he was more like a friend!
He was fun to work with, always ready with a greeting and a smile. I feel sadness for the passing of Manh, but I also remember him with fondness.  Sleep in peace Manh, you are remembered well!


My heart breaks for Dieu. Manh and Dieu are my neighbors. They both spend so much time in their garden tending to their beautiful plants. Dieu will wave and say “Hi!” though we speak completely different languages. Manh & I would often chat over the fence about his garden and how challenging it is to grow anything in Texas! For a while, they had a persimmon tree in the yard. They wrapped paper bags around the fruit to fend off squirrels. The tree looked like it was wearing curlers! When the harvest came, Manh was so sweet to give me two of his prized persimmon. Such a kind and gentle man.  I will miss our chats over the fence. My heart goes out to his beautiful wife.  

Manh was a great person and wonderful to work with. Always very helpful and willing to help even when he himself was busy. I worked with him the last couple months and learned a lot from him. I had known Manh for many years prior as well. He would stop by my work area at times, and we would talk about work and events that were happening around the world. A lot of times we would just vent to each other about what was happening on our different teams, and it just made things a little better after our talks. I will truly miss Manh, and work/life will never be the same without him. My prayers go out to his Family and many friends. Thank You Manh for everything

Rest in peace old friend, sad to hear you’re gone. Even though you never knew, I thought of you as a mentor. Not just in your work habits but in your daily life, always there to help another. Your warm greetings were welcomed by me and all your peers.Manh will always be remembered by me as a friendly and funny man who always had a smile.
