I worked with Luong for many years at Sears when I was in college, and he is always one of my favorite memories of that time. Luong was a kind and energetic man who always had a smile on his face, even if he was hauling heavy tool cases. I remember him fondly, please accept my condolences - Eileen Collins-Blackwell, Illinois
Grandpa, it is impossibly difficult to say goodbye to you while not being with family nor being able to wish you off on your next adventure in person. I cherish every moment I had with you; from Sunday dinners to teaching me to ride a bike to sitting in your patio enjoying a cup of 'cafe au lait' together. Though my family coined you 'little Grandpa' you had an extraordinarily big heart. Your impact in my life is unfathomable and will leave a void in my heart forever. I love you, I miss you, and I hope to one day see you again.
Good bye, bac Phan Huy Luong. You were and always will be my favorite uncle. Your gentle manner and ready smile will not be forgotten. I had many memories of you, not the least of which was the time you spent with my family on the island of Guam many, many years ago, on our journey to this new country of ours, America. I greatly admire men of your generation, men like you and my father, who sacrificed so much of your youth and life for that old country. Then, with two empty hands, started life all over again with a young family in a foreign world.
“Old soldiers never die,
Never die, never die,
Old soldiers never die,
They simply fade away.”
Wishing you Godspeed. May you rest in peace…
Your nephew,
Nguyen Hai Bang
So sorry for the loss of Luong Huy Phan. He lived a full life, first in Vietnam and then in the US and loved his wife and family. What a gentle and caring man. He enjoyed gardening and he enjoyed his family. I remember his delight at showing us his lemon tree. May he rest in peace.
