Phat Quan Ha

Phat Quan Ha, beloved husband, father, brother, and friend, passed away surrounded by the immense love he cultivated throughout his lifetime. Born in Sóc Trăng, Vietnam, he came of age during a turbulent era that demanded courage far beyond his years. Trained by the United States Air Force, he served as a South Vietnamese Air Force pilot, carrying both skill and steadfast resolve into every mission. His life, marked early by conflict and displacement, would become a testament to resilience, generosity, and faith.

In 1975, as the war came to its devastating close, Phat made the brave journey to the United States as a Vietnamese refugee, accompanied by his wife and their infant daughter. They arrived with nothing but determination and built everything that mattered. In the years that followed, he and his wife welcomed two more daughters and a son, raising their family with devotion, sacrifice, and unfaltering love. Together, he and his wife built a successful business, where his exceptional talent as a machinist and his tireless work ethic laid the foundation for their family’s future.

Phat was a man of many gifts. A natural athlete, he was a formidable volleyball player; a Good Samaritan in every sense, he was generous, giving, and remarkably selfless. Calm in demeanor and joyful in spirit, he greeted the world with warmth, humor, and a quiet strength that anchored those around him. His faith in God shaped his life, and his humility and charity bore witness to the depth of his beliefs.

He was, above all, a caretaker - of his family, of his community, and of anyone who crossed his path. As the eldest brother, he raised and guided many siblings. His home became a refuge for relatives, friends, and newcomers alike. He drove friends to run errands, lent money without hesitation, gave time freely, and welcomed every person as if they were family. His door and his heart were never closed.

Phat possessed a deep love of life’s simple joys. He sang with gusto, danced with delight, and relished hosting gatherings filled with laughter, music, and good food. He entertained, told stories, played cards, and shared drinks with friends who became extended family across decades. He gave his children far more than material comfort. He gave them wisdom, encouragement, and the freedom to learn their own life lessons, all while standing steady behind them with guidance and unwavering support.

His legacy lives on in the countless people he uplifted, the community he helped build, and the family he nurtured with boundless love. He is survived by his devoted wife On Ha, his daughters Thao Ha, Hieu Ha, and Hien Ha, and his son Jonathan Ha - all of whom carry his spirit within them: generous, joyful, courageous, and profoundly kind.

Phat Quan Ha’s life was a blessing to all who knew him. His memory will continue to shine brightly - as steady and comforting as the man himself.
