In April 1975, he made the courageous journey to the United States as one of the first Cambodian families seeking refuge during a time of great uncertainty.

Sarin was a respected and well-known figure within the Cambodian community. He was known for his generosity, guidance, and willingness to help others. He played an important role in assisting numerous families as they began new lives in America and was fondly remembered for helping bring people together, including arranging marriages that grew into many happy unions.
