I am so sorry for your family’s loss. My deepest condolences. Our family and friends love him and think of him often. He was a great friend and teacher to many of us kids growing up. I could never express my full gratitude for his visit to the US for my graduation. I am happy that we played music together, stayed in touch, and shared many postcards and photos. Your family and Stephen are in our prayers. Read more

“The most beautiful things in the world are hard to see and touch, they are only felt with the heart” “See you again Mr. Steven MC!”, he - our family's respected friend. We will always remember you. Rest in peace friend!" Vietnam - Vung Tau is his second home. He came and breathed his passion for music into this beautiful coastal city. His street band friends in VT respected and loved him very much. We are so sad to hear that our beloved Mr. Stephen has passed away! Our condolences to his family. KL has not been able to return to Vietnam since 2018. This Christmas, KL and I were going to apply for a visa to Australia to only go to Perth and visit only one person, and now it is too late! He was your father but also a great friend of our family. My children loved him like their own grandfather. We respected and loved him as our father. He taught my children and my friends in Vung Tau to love music and love people. His coming to the US for a month to attend KL's graduation was a source of pride for KL and our entire family, a blessing that not everyone has in life. We are so lucky and proud to have such a kind and loving father. He was willing to stay in a smaller house instead of renting a luxury hotel every time he returned to Vietnam and he donated the remaining money to support Mr. Hai's violin class in Vung Tau. His friends in Vung Tau loved him very much and were always happy to welcome him back to Vung Tau. He always taught us to say "See you again!" instead of "Goodbye!". Once again, on behalf of our friends in Vung Tau, on behalf of my children, my family and I, I would like to express our deepest condolences for your loss. We loved him very much! I contacted the Australian visa centre but they said it would take a month to get approved. We are so sorry that we did not get to see him, hold his hand as he lay in his hospital bed and share the beautiful memories with him. Our family would like to send flowers to pay our respects. I have told all my friends in Vung Tau so they can pray for him. We loved him more than you can imagine. Read more
