Ong, I never had a father. You stepped up to fill that void in my life and I will forever cherish all the memories we made. When my mother passed away you were always there to watch my back. My entire world was ripped from under my feet when I was five years old, but again you picked me up. I realized that Mum was not the only person I could rely on. You and I stayed together until the very end and I would have had it no other way. You taught me to be strong and you are the reason why I am the person I am today. My mind is now more focused and determined to make you proud of the man I have become. Thank you for having such a huge impact on my life. Thank you for all the good, the bad, and the fun memories. Thank you for being the positive role model in my life. You are the person I love and respect the most.


I love you, Ong. Thank you for everything.

 I don't think there's honestly one particular moment, one word that can capture what Ong encompasses. However, whenever I think of him, I imagine a unique invidiual, who was hard working and driven till his last breath. One of my favorite traits about Ong is that he was someone who felt happiness and induced it. His energetic and positive personality was infectious; no matter where he was he always smiled. Much of the world knew him as a pioneer for Vietnamese music and culture, but I was fortunate enough to call him my grandpa. You were loved and you will be missed dearly. 
                                                                                                                    Love forever and always, Kiet Tran

My family and I have lost a husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle; no words can express the sadness for the loss of the heart and soul of our family. There isn't one single event with him that stands out because every birthday, every holiday, every family event was just as memorable as a casual afternoon at the supermarket with him.  He always took great care of his grandchildren, making sure we were going to school and always preparing a meal for us when we were hungry. As for my own experience with him, I wasn't the perfect grandson, but in his eyes I didn't have to be. I hope I have done all that I can to make him proud of me. His lecture to me has made me a better person, and because he has always believed in me I am who I am today. He has always brought out the best in me; he would always make an effort to take part in my studies and my hobbies. He was always the first one in the family to say happy birthday to me because he always remembered. I will always treasure the memories I have of him; I will miss his smile, his gentle touch, and his loving heart.      
The Vietnamese community has not only lost a legendary song writer, we have lost an icon. Kind-hearted, humble, sweet, gentle, these were some of the many word that describe my grandfather. Always thinking of others before he thought about himself. He loved everyone and was loved by everyone.
Thank you for always loving me and always believing in me. I will always love you, and I know you will watch over me from up above. I promise I will make you proud, I will see you again soon.

I will never forget Ong and all the life lessons he taught me. Ong was more than just the father I never had, he was a beacon of joy that showed me how to both respect and enjoy our journey through life. He taught us all to appreciate all things, no matter how big or small they were. Ong was always a positive force in my life, his discipline and sense of pride always drove us to be the best we could be. He taught me to never use excuses, to never back down from challenges and to constantly improve myself. I will always miss his presence, but he will forever remind me what it means to live life to the fullest. As I sit here and write this, the only thing I can really think of is that I hope is that I've done enough to make him truly proud of me.

Hello Ong!  There is no one in this world I admire more than you.  You're a legend.  You're an artist.  You're an inspiration... and your melodies and lyrics will be forever remembered.  
But while most of people will be sad because they lost the best song writer around... I'm sad because I lost my grandfather... my friend. 
You've been a father, a grandfather, a teacher, and a bestfriend.  You've made me laugh.  You've made me think.  You've made me happy.  You've made me wiser.  You've made me... better.
I never got a chance to tell you that in this family I look up to you the most, and I loved you the most.   From when I was a child when you raised me untill all the way now as I drove you around and took care of you while you were sick.  I always enjoyed every minute with you.  You are so kind... and you were so brave towards the end of your life.
I feel like I've lost so much of myself now that you're gone... but I will rebuild myself and do you right.  You lived a life that many can only dream of and we should all take inspiration from that.  
I won't waste what you've taught me and remembered what you stood for.  I love you Ong.  Wherever you are... I am with you!
