With her early passing, Paulette leaves behind a large and devoted family who deeply grieve her sudden absence. She is survived by her immediate family: husband, Trần Công Thạnh; children, Danny and Olivia; and precious grandsons, Bodhi, Sebastian "Bash", and Gunnar; her sisters, Jacqueline Nguyen and Denise Tran; and cousins, nieces, nephews, in-laws, and close friends too numerous to list. We are comforted to know that she has joined her beloved eldest sister, Andrée Do, and mother, Cecilia Ðoān Thi Xin.
We will hold a visitation for our dearest Paulette on Sunday, October 13, 2024 from 3:00pm to 7:00pm at Gates, Kingsley & Gates Praiswater Mortuary, 6909 Canoga Ave, Canoga Park, CA 91303.
A funeral service and mass will take place on Monday, October 14, 2024 at 10am at Saint Joseph the Worker Catholic Church, 19855 Sherman Way, Los Angeles, CA 91306.
Both Visitation and Funeral Mass will be closed-casket, and Paulette will be cremated, per her wishes. Her remarkable creativity, generous spirit, endless love, and infectious laughter will forever live on in the hearts of those she loved
