KimChi Ngo Nguyen, 50 of Worcester died on Tuesday, May 19 in St. Vincent Hospital.
KimChi leaves her 3 children, Hoang Thai Ngo Nguyen of Worcester, Hoang Thien Ngo Nguyen of Worcester, and Thanh Tho Emily Nguyen of Apex, NC.
She was born in Vietnam in 1970 of Joseph Vo Ngo and Bay Thi Huynh as the eldest daughter of 11 children. Culturally, being the eldest girl in a Vietnamese family, her responsibilities are to aid and assist in raising the family as a mother’s helper. She learned at a very young age to cook, clean and care for her family.
Other than her natural ability to care for others, she was a business entrepreneur and managed businesses such as international grocery, and gas and convenience.
As of recently, she became the primary caretaker for her parents due to their old age. After the passing of both of her parents on May 14th, she too followed them to heaven to care for them.
Her funeral was Thursday, May 21st at 10:00 AM in Our Lady of Vilna Church, 153 Sterling Street. Burial was in St. John's Cemetery. Calling hours were Wednesday, May 20th from 11:00 AM until 6:00 PM in O'CONNOR BROTHERS FUNERAL HOME, 592 Park Avenue.
