Ty Viet Cao

God our Father,

Your power brings us to birth,

Your providence guides our lives,

and by Your command we return to dust.

Abbeville - Mr. Ty Viet Cao returned to our Lord on May 26, 2023.  May the Lord embrace him fully as we have and ease his pain.  May all of his prayers for everlasting life with the Lord and continued love of his family be answered.

Mr. Ty Viet Cao left this world the way that he loved living his life-surrounded by family in his home.  He was survived by his wife of sixty (60) years, Mrs. Emily Nhieu Cao and seven children: Nhien Le, Anh Cao, Thai Cao, Nguyet Hoang, Son Cao, Vinh Cao and Elizabeth Cao.  He was also survived by and adored by his seventeen (17) grandchildren and four (4) great grandchildren.  Mr. Ty Viet Cao never missed a chance to love and tease his grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Although his illness took his physical body in his last days, it did not take his heart and soul.  Whether it was a brother or sister from afar or a great grandchild wanting to jump on his belly, he welcomed all visitors until he could no more.  His home was always open and a meal was always ready for visitors. And, if there were enough visitors, Mr. Ty Viet Cao would always make sure he had a speech ready thanking his visitors for coming.

It is with deeply saddened hearts that our family must make this last thank-you speech for him.  Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and condolences.  Please continue to keep Mr. Ty Viet Cao and his family in your prayers.
