Dear Sydney,
We hope you're in peace and in heaven with grandma. Although your fate saddens us, it doesn't stop us from recalling every single memory we had together while you were still with us. We loved when you would come over to our house, or we would go to yours, and we would play fun games and hang out. Since the day we met, you always made us feel warm and at home. We did so many fun things together, like sewing lessons and get-togethers. We remember how you and your brothers would always come over to hang out, and we would do so many unforgettable and silly things together. It was so fun when we would go up the hill in our backyard, and you, us, and Mahika would sing to each other and we would vote for the winner (who had the best voice)? You would win a lot, and we remember you had the most beautiful singing voice. Oh, and we used to play this game that we called "subway surfers," a real life version of the digital game where we would run around the pool and try to escape the biker chasing us. Those were some days we will never forget. Since day one, we've always been great friends, and we'll never forget your cute and silly personality. Although the years were short, you'll still hold a special place in our hearts forever. ❤️

Love, your neighbors,
Ev and Allie Falk

To My Sweet Niece, Sydney!

No words can describe how I feel right now, knowing that you are no longer with us. I am so grateful for the time we had together for over a year. We shared the savory exotic foods, seafood delicacies, and got to see your favorite K-pop group. We also shared one of your favorite tropical fruits: durian! I remember that your dad can't handle the smell, but he would still sit next to you and watch you enjoy it. I even learned how to crochet so that I could make a pink beanie just for you. Thank you for cherishing my gift and wearing it to every doctor appointment.

You’re such a sweet and lovely girl. You always smile every time I see you, even when you’re not feeling well and you never once complained.

You are now reunited with Grandma in heaven. May your soul rest in peace and love. It’s not a good bye until we meet again. You just beat me there! Please know that you and your family are in my prayers every second, every day and always.

Love always, 💞💕

Sydney has always been such a precious ray of sunshine in our lives, and her beautiful personality is a reflection of her family's unconditional love for her. Her silliness, her endless positivity, her sweet smile, her kindness and thoughtfulness, her love of pink, squishies, Enhypen, Hello Kitty, and Labubus...I'll never forget any of it. I'll miss sharing our favorite weird mukbang videos with each other, even though everyone else thought that beef spine, yellow stingray liver, and monkfish liver were way too unappetizing. I'll miss playing Connect 4 with her and losing every time, to the point where I felt like she had rigged the game somehow. And I'll miss the weekends we spent just being with one another, laughing with all of the cousins. I feel so incredibly lucky and happy for the time that I got to spend with my dearest baby cousin, and I'll cherish her memory forever. She's taught me so much about resilience and courage, and there are no words that can fully express how much love I have for Sydney. She will rest easy knowing that she'll forever and always be surrounded by so much love and fondly remembered by all who knew her. I love you forever, our angel Sydney!

My sweet Sydney,

I feel so incredibly fortunate to have been a small part of your life. I remember you were born the same day I left for college. Ba Ngoai, my mom, and I were the first ones to hold you at the hospital right before I headed to the airport to fly across the country. To have held you on your first day of life, to being with you over your last couple days is something I will always hold so close to my heart.

Your laughter was contagious, your kindness sincere, and your heart impossibly gentle and pure. Whether through your silliness that made us laugh or your playful suspiciousness that made us smile, you brought brightness wherever you went. Though your soul was sweet and tender, you were relentlessly strong. You were a fighter in every sense of the word. You faced your challenges with quiet courage and resilience that inspired us all in the family.

I will always cherish the moments we had together. I got to do your hair before Ben & Thuy’s banquet wedding, and we even planned out your dress together. We had a big cousin sleepover when Dylan & Nolan had their tournament in Vegas, and I got to do your nails in your favorite color with your favorite nail polish. We got to dress up your labubus. We even got to run a 5k together. Von and I will also never forget how you always batted a suspicious eye at him. And I’ll remember and keep all the little conversations we’ve had close to my heart. I will never forget your quirky laugh or your gentle little hugs. I wish I could’ve continued to be the big cousin/big sister I could’ve been for you.

My greatest hope is that you knew how utterly loved and cherished you were. You were so deeply loved, Sydney. I hope that all your wishes came true. I hope that you had the time of your life at Enhypen. I hope that you got to try all the foods your heart (and tummy) desired while you could. Your spirit, your laugh, and your gentle soul lives on through your memories.

This year has been filled with more grief and heartbreak for our family than I could’ve ever imagined. From losing Ba Ngoai to your diagnosis. My heart has never ached so deeply the way it has for you, Ut Phương, Cau Vu, Dylan, and Nolan. The pain unimaginably unbearable. A part of me is so relieved you don’t have to go through any more medications or needles. Another part of me is at peace because I know Ba Ngoai is taking great care of you and you’re the first of us to see her and be with her again. But every part of me will always miss you and hold you in my heart forever.

You could never, ever be replaced. But I promise I will always be there for your parents, Dylan, and Nolan. I had only wished to show you the love that Ut Phương and Cau Vu showed me when I was younger.

I hope you’re roaming the streets of Tokyo and racking up all the gachapons right now, just like you’ve always wanted to.

You will always be in our hearts. You’re constantly on my mind and in my thoughts. And you’ll live forever in our memories.

I love you so much, Sydney. And I’ll love you forever. 🕊️💕

Love always,
Chi Vy

I loved spending time with Sydney in summer camp together. We based our schedules off each others so we went every where together. I remember a time when our first aid merit badge counselor asked us to create a scenario where we had to perform first aid with our partner. Sydney and I performed CPR on her sloth stuffy, Scotty, who she named after her favorite camp counselor.

Sydney always brought so much warmth to scout meetings and events. She got excited about little things, and new scouts were able to feel comfortable around her because of how welcoming she was.

Doing a presentation in class with her back in 8th grade was so much fun. I love and cherished all of those short moments with her. I am glad that she is resting and may she rest in peace. Love you, to beloved Sydney. 🕊️❤️
