Bill > S0010

This resolution extends condolences on the passing of Saysomboun Phivilay, a Laotian immigrant who lived in Rhode Island. The resolution provides a detailed background of her life, noting that she was the youngest of nine siblings born in Thakhek, Laos, and married her husband Khamsing in 1975 after meeting in the early 1960s. In 1980, the couple immigrated to the United States with their eldest daughter, initially settling in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, and later moving to Providence. The resolution highlights Mrs. Phivilay's loving nature, her commitment to family, and her passion for maintaining Laotian traditions through cooking and sharing cultural experiences with her children and grandchildren. The Senate formally resolves to extend heartfelt condolences to her family and directs the Secretary of State to transmit a certified copy of the resolution to her husband Khamsing, daughter Phanida, and daughter Alina, along with their respective families, as a gesture of sympathy and recognition of her life and contributions.
