May was born on August 15, 1954, in Xieng Khouang, Laos to Pathong Vue and Yer Moua.
In 1976, as a young newlywed, she immigrated to Dallas, Texas, leaving behind the country of her birth to begin a new life alongside her husband, Tong Kai Pageu Moua. Together, with faith, courage, sacrifice, and determination, they built a beautiful life and family that would span more than five decades.
May’s Christian faith was the foundation of her life. She was a devoted member of the Hmong Baptist Church of Texas, where she served as a leader of the women’s ministry. She faithfully served the Lord and her church family, encouraging other women in their faith and helping strengthen the Hmong community that was such an important part of her life.
May was also a hardworking and accomplished woman. For over 30 years, she built a career in accounting, working for various companies. Her career reflected the qualities that defined so much of her life—discipline, responsibility, perseverance, and a willingness to work hard for those she loved.
After leaving the working world behind, May found happiness in a simpler life. She especially enjoyed raising chickens, a hobby that brought her joy and gave her another opportunity to nurture and care for something.
May is survived by her beloved husband of 51 years, Kai; her son, Chieng, his wife, Lena, and their son, Michael; her daughter, Vicki, and her children, Connor and Sydney; and her son, Ken, his wife, Sherry, and their children, Knox and Lane.
She is also survived by her sisters and brother, as well as many nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.
May’s family will miss her presence in ways that words cannot fully express. They will miss her voice, her strength, her care, and all the familiar things that made her simply Mom, Grandma, Pog Pog and Tais Doua / Phauj.
But grief does not erase gratitude. Her family is grateful for 72 years of her life, for 51 years of marriage, for the mother who raised three children, for the grandmother who loved the next generation, for the auntie who adored her nieces and nephews and for the woman whose faith carried her from Laos to Texas and through every season of her life.Though her earthly journey has ended, the lessons she taught, the faith she lived, and the love she gave will continue through her children and grandchildren.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”— 2 Timothy 4:7
Her race is finished. Her faith endured. Her family carries her legacy forward.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that memorial donations be made in May’s memory to the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation.
