A Caring, Kind, & Sweet Man -

Nghia Trung Le, age 61, of Mechanicsburg, went Home to be with his Lord peacefully with his loving family by his side at home on Wednesday, April 26, 2017, after a long battle with ALS.  Nghia was born on Saturday, December 24, 1955 in Vietnam to the late Le Van Hien and (Tran) Thi Kim.  In addition to his parents, Nghia is preceded in death by an infant daughter, Jennifer Kim Le; and several of his siblings.

He worked at Holy Spirit Hospital in Camp Hill for 36 years as an AV technician.  Nghia was a member of Saint Katharine Drexel Church in Mechanicsburg since 1991.  He was a member of the Harrisburg Hunters and Anglers Association.  Nghia loved photography and taking pictures.  His family remembers how he would often photograph every family event they had.  Nghia also enjoyed pistol shooting, riding motorcycles, and doing different things on his computer.  He was very organized and particular about how things should be which was evident in the way that he saved money. Nghia liked traveling with his family and going to the beach, particularly to Ocean City in Maryland and New Jersey.  He loved to teach and was an excellent role model.  Family was very important to Nghia and he loved spending time with his grandsons.  His family and friends remember fondly how much of caring, sweet, and kind man he was; he will be missed dearly.
