To the family of Hoan and Dinh, I express my profound condolences and sympathy. I wish your family to go forward with peace and grace. I want to let you know how well respected your parents are. I only associated briefly with them during their time in Arizona, just before they moved east. Their kind professionalism was significant to each of us as colleagues.

I was saddened to learn of Hoan's passing. As a coworker to both Hoan and Dinh I am reminded of the many breakfasts they cooked and served here in Newport News. Hoan was so dedicated to not just our mission but our morale as well. I enjoyed the many conversations we shared about cruise vacations and specifically I remember the excitement she displayed as she told her stories. Know my thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. 

With deepest condolences ,

Jim Lacek

To the Family of Hoan Pham,

Hoan was a great friend and co-worker. She and i worked closely together for over 20 years. I learned a lot from her. She was a hard worker, had strong integrity, was genuine, and wasn't shy, would share her opinions / thoughts whether you wanted to hear it or not...lol...I wouldn't be where i am in my career if it wasn't for her example and knowledge that she shared over the years. She loved her family and we would share stories about our loved one's often. I imagine that Hoan is enjoying a cruise somewhere new and exciting now in the land above. Thanks for sharing her with us durng her time here on earth. May God continue to bless and comfort you'll.
