Janet Vanniroth with children at the orphanage at Khao-I-Dang refugee camp, Thailand, 1980. Janet is in the second row, wearing a red dress. Her mother, Vannsath Nguon, is at the far right wearing a white CRS (Catholic Relief Services) t-shirt with black pants. CRS may have been overseeing the orphanage operations. The woman at the far left, also wearing the CRS t-shirt, worked at the orphanage. Janet identified her as Auntie Ray. She is not a blood relative, but it is a common practice in Cambodia to address everyone using kinship terms. The rest of the children are unidentified. Janet stayed in touch with Auntie Ray and visited her in Canada where she received sponsorship.
