A. I come from a large family.  I have 8 sisters and 4 brothers, including me.  A younger brother passed away when we were still in Laos.  The nice thing is, all of my siblings live in the states.  My dad passed away in 2001 and my mom left us in October 2016.  Recently, November 2021, my brother passed due to Covid-19.  Below is a picture of all of my siblings, oldest to youngest from R-L (Kha, Shoua, Cha, Pheng, Me, Tia, Hua, Chong, Ying (me), See, Yia & Bao) during my mom's funeral.  We all have our own families and live in different states.

Note: My brother Chong passed away November 29, 2021 due to COVID-19.  We buried him on December 27, 2021.
