Pontip was a Health Care Registered Nurse and Nursing Supervisor in Chaimai, Thailand.  She was a dedicated mother, raising three children on her own, and traveled to the United States as an immigrant.  While in the U.S., she was not able to work as an R.N., so she worked caring for disabled children who required full-time attention.

She is survived by her children Tania Von Visger (Jon), Leeann Asai (George), Thomas Warren (Benjaporn); grandchildren Christopher Von Visger, Goz Asai, Tiffany Warren, Paulina Warren, Marissa Warren; sisters Chamchan Phantong and Jirarontigan Pasook, plus many other loving relatives and friends.

Cremation will take place and her cremated remains will be taken to her hometown in Thailand. Per her wishes and customs, the remains will be released into the Pai River.
