To Victor, Vivien, Vince, Papa Savath. I am so sorry for your loss. There are no words to describe what I am sure must be an unfathomable loss and pain. Your mother, and wife, was and will always remain to me a remarkable woman, full of love and of life. I will cherish every memory I hold of walking in to your kitchen to offers of dumplings and an insistence that I must eat more; I will always remember Chu's cards, and her endless ability to celebrate life. Chu was beautiful, and strong, and kind, and she will be missed forever. I am so sorry I cannot be with you there, in person, today and tomorrow to celebrate her life, I wish with all my heart that I could be with you. Please know I am thinking of you, and I am mourning for you, and I am celebrating for you the beautiful life of Chu. I live each day more fully in her memory and honor. I am making a donation to Room To Read, Laos, in honor and memory of Chu. May it help others in Laos to lead the life Chu wanted for everyone. I am deeply, deeply sorry for your loss. With love, Stephanie
