Min had two wonderful daughters, Tiffany and Kristy. She enjoyed being extremely active in both her children's lives. She pushed them to greater heights, encouraging them to try their hand at skills like dance, soccer, and music. She loved volunteering at their school through planning and participating in activities such as field trips and fundraisers.
