I had no idea my dinner with my friend Vuthy in Chinatown, DC that night when I was in town from Detroit in December 2005 would be my last time seeing Vuthy. Of course he insisted he pick up the tab and insisted I take the job in Broward County FL, which he and I consulted with in 2000 through CSystems to help them build their 1st IT Security program. I took the job in FL where I still live and cherish these memories of him, the love he always showed on his face when he talked about Grace, Vicki and Christian, tennis, his business and the impact he had on my life! Rest in Power my eternal friend your life was a gift and you works speak for themselves!

My words are late and empty Grace,Vicky and Kristen, ... especially in comparison to the Great person and loving spirit we are blessed to experience in Vuthy's life and still today in his memory. He truly is the gift that keeps on giving! A friend from Detroit just asked me about him last month (as he remembered when Vuthy visited me there and we went to Windsor, CN :-))! I had dinner with him in Dec 2005 in Chinatown,DC, before he encouraged me to take the job in Ft Lauderdale,FL. I had no idea, it would be our last meal together. As you know, I loved my friend and mentor, and he valued nothing more than you, his loving family. Wherever we travelled, he epitomized that, love is all there is and we all are One! Love you eternally and miss you all!

We honor you today, Vuthy. You are still missed by us all. I hope you are catching a lot of fish in Alaska and the lady with the one eye and gold tooth made you some tea.

Vuthy,

I will always miss you, for the rest of my life. What else is there to be said? You were the best! Your legacy lives on through Grace and the girls.

Rest in peace.

To Chhim Family,

Vuthy was a wonderful and loving man. He always talked about his family and friends. He was a blessing from God and will be missed dearly. He was the example of what a Christian should be (slow to anger and always forgiving). I will miss how he always joked with me about Flava Flav. He always told me that Grace hated for him to watch that show (smile). He told me that he was going to dress up like Flava Flav for Halloween by wearing a big clock around his neck. Vuthy was so full of life and his legacy will live on. My prayers are with the Chhim family, C-System family and friends. I will miss his comedic style and loving spirit. God Bless all of you.

Grace, Christine & Vicki,

I feel blessed to have known Vuthy. He was such a wonderful person. Vuthy certainly portrayed the perfect picture of an outstanding individual. He was always in good spirits and never spoke ill wishes. We can all take a lesson from Vuthy. He is greatly missed.

If you ever met him , you would have became "Vuthy-ierized." He captured your heart and warmed your spirit immediately. His stories, his smile, his kindness was mesmerizing. He was one of my best friends. I am and will forever be...Vuthy-ierized!
