Myna Thai-Lok

Myna Thai-Lok passed away on February 25, 2021 at her home in Arlington, Virginia at the age of 62, following a battle with breast cancer. Survivors include her father: Choung Thai of Arlington, Virginia; ex-husband: Ming Tak Lok of Alexandria, Virginia; three children: Victor Lok of Herndon, Virginia, Albert Lok of Falls Church, Virginia and Tiffany Davis (formerly Lok) of Alexandria, Virginia; two grandchildren; ten sisters and brothers and a host of other devoted relatives and friends. Born on May 8, 1958, Myna was raised in Vietnam and spent her adult life in the Northern Virginia Area after immigrating to the United States in 1979. She was the fourth child of Choung Thai and the late Khe Dao. Myna was a dedicated public servant, having spent 30+ years working for the Arlington County Public School System. Myna was the loving matriarch of her family. She was fiercely independent and opinionated, while also compassionate and charming. She always put others first. She loved spending time with her grandchildren, who referred to her as their nai nai, and shopping with her many sisters. Though we have a huge void in our hearts and will miss her terribly, Myna’s family and loved ones feel so fortunate to have been able to spend 62 years together. Her legacy will live on through her children and grandchildren; and her memory will last forever. The family would like to extend gratitude to the staff at Capital Caring and Kaiser Permanente for the care shown to Myna over the past few months. Her family and friends meant the world to her and we look forward to celebrating her life at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial donation in her name to the Susan G. Komen Foundation @ https://www.komen.org/how-to-help/donate/memorial-giving/ (If you wish the family to be notified of a donation it can be emailed to [email protected]).
