Buffalo, NY/Henrietta, NY: At age 81, Eum passed peacefully on July 29, 2022.  She was born in Savannaakhet, Laos on October 10, 1940 to parents Art and Nok Daoheuang. Survived by her daughter Malinda (Somchith) Daoheuang of Buffalo; grandchildren, David (Bhypone) Daoheuang, Jeffrey (Randi Lynn) Daoheuang, and Katie Daoheuang (Aaron Wright); great-grandchildren, Peyton, Miliani, Riley, and Leilani; nephew Thongdao Saiyakhom; also survived by many other loving family and friends.

Eum loved being surrounded by friends and family, traveling, shopping, tending to her garden at the temple, cooking, knitting, and making candles. She was the light in every room she walked into and her smile was contagious. She was very independent and determined and succeeded in whatever she set her mind to.  Eum cared deeply for her loved ones, and there is not one person who was lucky enough to hear her laugh and feel her love will ever forget what it felt like.

Services will be held on Thursday, August 4th, from 7-9pm and on Friday, August 5th, from 7-9pm at the Wat Pa Lao Buddhadham Temple, 135 Martin Road, West Henrietta, NY 14586 where on Saturday, August 6th , services will be held from 9am-2pm.
