320 - Ross Le - Finding Family After 70 years

The Le family, separated for 70 years, is celebrating a special reunion this Christmas. Le Dinh Toai was a young merchant ship captain in Saigon in the early 1950's. He was a talented man who spoke four languages and had two children. His family adored him and were proud of his success.

Tragically in 1952, Le Dinh Toai passed away suddenly in a car accident in Vietnam, leaving behind a five-year-old son, Le Manh Trung, who was living in Hong Kong. Le Dinh Toai's surviving four siblings in Vietnam grieved deeply and began to search for their nephew, Le Manh Trung, Ross Le's father.

Now after over 70 years, thanks to social media, Ross Le has reconnected with his father's side of the family. They had lost hope of finding Le Manh Trung, now in his mid-70s. Ross has recently visited his father's long lost sister in Saigon, whom his father never knew, and met many cousins in Hue and Saigon.

Ross now living in Los Angeles, also found more relatives in Garden Grove, making the reunion even more special.

We're delighted to share this heartwarming story of the Le family's reunion. Happy Holidays!
