On June 26th, our lives were shattered when we learned of the passing of our dear friend and colleague Jonnah Abaya – just three days after her 44th birthday. There are no words to express how much she will be missed.

Many of you know that Jonnah fought a long and brave battle against breast cancer. Family and friends of Jonnah are devastated by the loss of this incredibly smart, joyful, beautiful, kind and loving soul. Loving wife to Lito, devoted mom to Eli, Rafa and Jannah, and amazing friend, Jonnah was always there for you. Her presence would light up any room she walked into. Despite her personal challenges and struggles, it was impossible to tell from her countenance and her willingness to help others. Jonnah will be remembered for her self-less spirit, her enormous heart, and her ever-lasting infectious smile.

As we all wonder what we can do to help during this extremely difficult time, we invite you to kindly contribute whatever you can in honor of Jonnah – the angel who touched everyone around her.

Disclaimer: This fund has been set up by Jonnah’s colleagues and friends, on behalf of the Abaya family.
