Thanh Chau Vo

With deep love and profound sadness, we announce the passing of our cherished sister, Thanh Chau Vo, who left us far too soon on October 21st. Born on February 9th, 1983, Chau was a radiant spirit, a source of joy, love, and boundless compassion who touched all who knew her with warmth and kindness.

Chau’s heart was as expansive as her energy; she had a rare gift for lighting up any room, making everyone feel seen, loved, and valued. Her family was the heart of her world, and she was fiercely devoted as a daughter, a beloved sister, and a friend who brought laughter and adventure into our lives. Chau approached every moment with an infectious spirit and a grace that left an imprint on us all. Her compassion knew no bounds. Whether she was reaching out to check on us, offering a helping hand, or sharing a smile, Chau’s presence was a constant reminder of the joy that comes from selfless love. She gave of herself freely, filling our lives with kindness and leaving a legacy of love and laughter that will remain forever.

As we mourn her passing, we are comforted by the countless precious memories that remind us of her beautiful spirit. Chau will live on in our hearts and in the love she left behind, a light that will guide us always.

Chau is survived by her parents, Dean Vo and Mai Nguyen, her siblings, Anthony Nguyen, Tony Vo, Long Vu, Thang Vu, nephew Carter Vo, and partner John Knight who will carry her memory forward with endless love and gratitude.
