On the 8th day of Tet, I went to Uncle Ho's temple on the sacred Ba Vi mountain.

As if re-enacting the image of Uncle Ho's difficult youth searching for a way to save the country. Two streams of tears kept falling and 15 minutes later, I received news from his wife. This morning I couldn't believe, didn't want to believe that he was gone forever.

Being a comrade with him during the years of serving in the army at the Military Region Art Troupe, being a colleague with him at the Hanoi Drama Theater, being a nephew in his beloved family.... He is a gentle and noble uncle. He is not gone! He will always be in the hearts of his comrades, will always be an uncle and an older brother in the beloved home of the Hanoi Drama Theater.
