My dad sang love songs, cracked jokes, grilled steak, and loved us abundantly. My mom said that losing him was like losing a piece of herself and that she would never find a man as kind hearted as him. 
A lot of people may know him as Ny Saloeun a 90's voice and musician of the Khmer community. But I know him as Charles, my dad who encouraged us to follow our dreams, value our roots, and honor our family. He left this world and our family too soon. We always said how he's a lover not a fighter, but he put up a fight while in hospice. Thank you for loving us and sharing your world with us pa. We miss you. 
Any donations towards his funeral service or words of comfort are welcomed. Our family appreciates all the wonderful blessings and encouragement we've received. We are so blessed and happy to see that the world loved our dad as much as we do.
