He did all that he could to serve the Laotian community near and far. He was an avid sports fan who enjoyed watching all facets of sports especially football, soccer, and baseball, and when asked who he was rooting for, the answer always was the "winner". He enjoyed the outdoors especially hunting and fishing. He also loved to garden and always had something growing whether it be inside or outside. Oudom was the cherished patriarch of our family and he will be greatly missed by everyone whose lives he touched.
