Nancy Phu Obituary
April 14, 1981 - August 25, 2025
Nancy Lam Phu passed away on August 25, 2025, at the age of 44 in San Diego, California. Nancy was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished daughter, sister, and a dear friend to many. She was known for her caring, selfless nature and was often described as a ray of sunshine by all who knew her.
Throughout her life, Nancy found deep joy and purpose in caring for her family. Her greatest happiness came from nurturing her son, creating a loving home, and spending meaningful time with her loved ones. She also enjoyed traveling, shopping, solving puzzles, and caring for her beloved dogs and cats.
Nancy is survived by her son, James Phu; her husband, Abderrahmane Djemel; her Mother, Hoa Umel; her Father, Tai Phu; her Brother, Michael Phu; and her Sisters, Phuong Phu and Cindy Phu. Her memory lives on in the love she shared and the lives she touched.
A service to celebrate Nancy's life will be held on September 17, 2025, at 7401 Princess View Dr. Suite A, San Diego, CA 92120. At 11:00 AM. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Nancy's memory to the San Diego Rescue Mission or The San Diego Humane Society, organizations that reflect her caring spirit and commitment to helping others and animals.

I am deeply saddened by Nancy´s passing. As her cousin, I will always remember the times we shared growing up together. Though life took us on different paths, I will never forget her kind spirit. My heart goes out to James, to her husband, and the rest of the family during this difficult time. May Nancy´s memory continue to live on in the love she gave and the lives she touched.
