About a week before the fall of Saigon. her father sent Huong and her sister to France to stay with relatives. The remainder of the family escaped Vietnam by boat to the Philippines. They arrived in the United States as refugees in June 1975. Huong and her sister joined the rest of the family in Ocala. Fla. During a time when refugees have been receiving large amounts of unfavorable publicity due to the recent influx into this country. I feel it is imperative that we recognize those who have outstanding contributions to make to our society. Huong possesses those qualities which have made America the proud melting pot it is today.
