Dzung Le Obituary

Visit the Caldwell Parrish Funeral Home & Crematory - Urbandale Chapel website to view the full obituary.

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved son, brother, husband, father, and uncle, Dzung Le. Surrounded by his family and those who admired him deeply, he passed away peacefully on July 27th at the age of 52. He is lovingly remembered as “Hu ng Duong”, a title honoring a life gone too soon.

Born on December 20th, 1972 in Vietnam, he was the only son of seven children—quiet, private, and steady. He showed love not through words, but through small acts of devotion, sacrifice, and reliability. He was the kind of person who gave everything he could to his family without asking for anything in return.

He is survived by his mother, his wife, their two young children, his siblings, and his nieces and nephews, all of whom adored him. He is preceded in death by his father, whom he deeply loved and respected.

Though his time with us was too short, the impact of his presence will stay with us always. We will remember him for his quiet strength, his love, and the life he built with care.

The visitation will be held at Caldwell Parrish Funeral Home on Sunday, August 3rd from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

The funeral Mass will take place at St. Peter Vietnamese Catholic Church on Monday, August 4th at 10:00 AM. Burial will follow immediately at Glendale Cemetery.
