Thanh Pham

Thanh Ngoc Pham, 84, of Philadelphia, was born in Nghe An, Vietnam, and passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 26, 2026, surrounded by those who loved her. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, she devoted her life to caring for her family.

Together with her husband, she raised eight children and built a home grounded in hard work, togetherness, and warm hospitality. She was known for her generous spirit and exceptional cooking, and she had a rare gift for making everyone feel welcomed and cared for—her heart always had room for more.

She is survived by her older sister, Pham Thi Guong, and her children: Anh-Tho (Vinh); Anh-Quoc Tran (Linh); Thuha Tran; Vinh Tran; Hong-Ngoc Hoang (Bill); Tuyet-Dung (Tho); Michael Tran (Kim); and John Tran (Jocelyn). She is also survived by her cherished grandchildren: Andie, Jason, Justin, Anthovin, Andre, Keane, Jacob, Colin, Aiden, Ashton, Vianna, Jalynn, Isabelle, Alyssa, Lillyana, and Adeline.
