In Loving Memory of Noree's Daughter, Mounette Castro (25)
It is with deep sorrow and heavy hearts that we share the sudden passing of Mounette Castro, her mother Noree's "BibiNono". A loving and vivacious daughter, young and full of life, taken from her family in a tragic vehicle accident.


Mounette lived her whole life in the city of San Pedro, Laguna, Phillipines, not far from Manila. She grew up with 2 wonderful sisters, one older and one younger. She was a good student who was very popular with many friends. Her mother Noree loved her dearly and has been working very hard for the past 7 years in the USA to make a better life for herself and her 3 daughters in America.

Mounette was a lovely young lady who was drawn to clothes and fashion at a young age. She was constantly posing for photos and videos like a model to show off her sense of fashion. She was interested in fashion design and wanted to pursue a fashion career in New York City. Alternatively, she also had an interest in joining the US Navy to serve in the military and travel to far off lands.


Mounette was a passionate free-spirit who loved to ride motorcycles. She had many other friends, who were also avid motorcycle riders, that she spent time with on rides and hanging out together. Mounette also dreamed of starting a business with her rider buddies, a cafe/burger place that would be a great place for people to ride to and hang out together.


Mounette loved her family very deeply and she was constantly in contact with her mother Noree via cellphone and videochat while Noree lived and worked in America. There are many things that Mounette missed during that time, like devouring her mom's luscious Red Velvet cupcakes, and being held and hugged by her mom who gave her tender motherly love and gentle taps on her back, like when she was burping her as a baby, "BibiNono". Mounette and her sisters were anxiously waiting for their immigration papers to be completed so they could be reunited with Noree in the USA.


As Mounette's mom and 2 sisters mourn this devastating loss, we are asking for help to cover the medical costs, funeral expenses and airfare for Noree to come to the Philippines, to make arrangements for her funeral. Noree and her daughters are now faced with the unimaginable task of navigating life without Mounette. This fund will help them honor Mounette's wonderful but short life.


Thank you for your generosity during this difficult time. Any contribution, large or small, will go directly to helping Noree and her family put Mounette to rest with love. Your kindness is a testament to the love that Mounette shared with all her family and friends, and the friendship you have with Noree, as well. Noree feels very blessed by God for the time He granted her to have Mounette as a daughter in this life. Noree is also very grateful to her friends at work who have helped her during difficult times while she has lived in America.

May Mounette rest in peace, and may her mother and sisters find strength and comfort in the love that surrounds them.
