On February 10, 1946, in Huế, Vietnam, Le Trong Dinh was born into a world that would test him early—losing his mother as an infant and his father as a young man. Yet from loss, he built resilience, faith, and wisdom that he carried throughout his life.

He was a devoted Catholic, a man of principle, and above all, a loving father who taught his children the value of living a good and honest life. His lessons were not only spoken but lived—showing us that dignity, integrity, and service to others are the true measures of a person’s life.

In his passing, we, his children, wish to continue the work he began in his lifetime: to give, to uplift, and to create opportunities for others.

We have established the Valiance Foundation, in memory of Le Trong Dinh, to support education and provide financial resources for underprivileged children in Vietnam. This mission reflects the values he lived by—resilience, compassion, and faith in action.

Instead of flowers, we invite you to join us in building something that will last: a legacy of giving. Every contribution will go directly to supporting children in need. His eldest son, Nhan Nguyen Le, together with his siblings, will personally travel to Vietnam to ensure that your generosity reaches the children and communities who need it most.

Your support honors not only his memory but also his lifelong devotion to family, faith, and the belief that living well means lifting others along the way.

Thank you for standing with us in love and remembrance.
