In Memory of Maleta Apogo

With a heavy heart, we’re sharing the passing of our Queen Sister, Maleta Apogo.

Maleta lived with cancer for some years.  She didn’t let it or anyone stop her.  Throughout her cancer treatments and surgeries she always seemed to find the silver lining, a way to laugh, a way to make you laugh, a way to rejoice.  She found solace in traveling to Africa to share her gift of teaching and loved to dance her heart out to the beats of the motherland just like she did in New York.

Picture these words: Lively, funny, fascinating, honest, educator, animated, robust, REAL.  These words should spark a memory you have of Maleta.  As they do, hopefully you will pay it forward with a donation.  

We mourn her loss though we rejoice in knowing that she gave us her all.

All money raised will go toward her final resting arrangements.
