Hue Kim Truong

On Sunday, November 8, 2026, Hue Kim Truong, beloved wife of Huy Truong, of Calgary, Alberta passed away at the age of 74 years.

Kim was a kind-hearted, gentle soul whose warm smile could brighten the room and touch everyone she met. Kim was the heart and soul of her family, bringing everyone together through the simple yet meaningful traditions of family gatherings, laughter, and delicious home-cooked meals. Every dish was prepared with hours of love, a reflection of the care and devotion she poured into those closest to her. 

Kim's life journey was anything but ordinary. During a time of uncertainty and political upheaval at the end of the Vietnam War, she met the love of her life. As the country underwent overnight political and social change under the new communist regime, they faced an uncertain future. Together, with their young daughter, they embarked on a courageous and harrowing journey into the unknown, leaving behind the familiar in search of freedom, independence, and a better future. That journey ultimately brought them to Canada, a place they would call home. 

For the next five decades, Kim embraced the freedom and opportunities of her new life, dedicating herself wholeheartedly to her daughter, son, and five beautiful grandchildren. She carried with her the values that had guided her through life's challenges: inner strength, independence, resilience, and above all, the importance of family and staying connected. 

Living a quiet and fulfilling life, Kim found joy in her work as an upholsterer and jewelry maker. She also fulfilled her dream of travelling the world, reconnecting with family, discovering new places, and experiencing different cultures along the way. 

Kim's legacy is one of courage, unconditional love, quiet strength, and family devotion. Her journey may have taken her across the world, but her greatest accomplishment was the family and lasting memories she created along the way. 

Kim will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all those whose lives she touched.

Besides her loving husband Huy of 50 years, Kim is survived by her daughter Jennifer Aquin of Calgary; son Donny Truong of Calgary; daughter-in-law Charissa Truong of Calgary;  five grandchildren, Isabelle Aquin, Dominic Aquin, Logan Aquin, Brandon Truong, Charlie Truong all of Calgary; many sisters and family in Sweden; brothers and sisters-in-law around the world, Canada, USA, Switzerland, and Vietnam.
