Yi Kim

She was born on November 9, 1957, at Pen village, Kear commune, Mung Russey district, Battambang province, Cambodia. Her dad’s name is Kim Pring, and her mom’s is Chen Nget. She was married to San Long, and had 4 children. After married, she was living in O Ambil village, O Ambil commune, Serey Sophorn district, Banteay Meanchey province. They then moved to Kbal Spean village, Poipet commune, Poipet district, Banteay Meanchey province. In 2016, Yi Kim and her husband decided to move to the United States and live with their daughter’s family.

Before moving to the United States, she was making a living in the border between Cambodia and Thailand by selling second-hand clothes.

She is a really religious person, and she abides by Buddha. She loved cooking and offering the food to the monk every religious holiday. Even in our everyday lives, she was always the first to wake up and cook for everyone. She made sure everyone had something to eat before going on with their day. Beside cooking, she loved talking on her phone with her friends and family oversea to check up on them. On some days, she would go to her daughter’s nail salon. She said the time would pass by faster when she could get out of the house and be able to talk with all the customers.
