May 1, 1929 — January 1, 2025

Long Beach

Bob Em, a beloved patriarch, was born on May 1, 1929, in Cambodia. He departed peacefully from this world in Long Beach, California, on January 1, 2025, surrounded by the warmth and love of his children, a testament to the deep bonds he cherished throughout his life.

Bob's journey through life was marked by resilience and devotion to family. He was married to his loving spouse, Lay Ten, with whom he shared many joyful years. Together, they nurtured a close-knit family, comprising their children: Samrach, Samrong, Kristine, Nirom, and Veasna. Bob took immense pride in his role as a father and reveled in the joys of family life.

As a grandfather, Bob's heart swelled with pride for his grandchildren, Samnang, Sokha, Jessica (Sophak), and Lisa, each of whom carried forward the values he instilled in them. His legacy continued to grow with the arrival of his great-grandchildren—Ethan, Kendrix, Khalon, Evan, Kairi, Edison, Kena, and Franklin—bringing a new generation into his embrace, each adding further joy and purpose to his life.

Bob's funeral service is scheduled for January 16, 2025, at Forest Lawn - Cypress - Patriots Chapel, located at 4471 Lincoln Avenue, Cypress, CA 90630. The service will commence at 2:00 PM and conclude at 3:00 PM, providing an opportunity for family, friends, and community members to gather in remembrance of a truly special man.

As we remember Bob Em, we celebrate a life well-lived, filled with love, joy, and cherished memories. His spirit will continue to resonate within the hearts of those who had the honor of knowing him.
