In Loving Memory of Annie Manuzon Rufino
August 4, 1977 – February 23, 2026
It is with unimaginable heartbreak that we share the passing of Annie Manuzon Rufino, who peacefully entered eternal rest after bravely fighting a 7-year battle with ALS. She was only 48 years old.
ALS slowly took away her physical strength, but it never took away her faith. It never took away her love. And it never took away her light.
Through every setback and every difficult day, Annie remained anchored in God. As a devoted member of Couples for Christ (CFC) in the Philippines, she continued to share her testimony, her hope, and her unwavering trust in the Lord, all while carrying the weight of a terminal illness. Her life became a living witness of courage and surrender.
Behind her strength stood a husband who loved her beyond measure, a man who faithfully and tenderly cared for her every single day for seven years. His devotion never wavered. Their love was quiet, sacrificial, and beautiful.
And at the center of Annie’s world were her three precious sons, just 9, 7, and 5 years old. They were her pride, her joy, and her reason to keep fighting. She dreamed of watching them grow, graduate, and fulfill their calling in life. Though she can no longer be here physically, her love will forever guide them.
Annie touched countless lives with her gentleness, her kindness, and her steadfast faith. Many will remember her smile, her prayers, and the way she made others feel seen and loved.
We are humbly asking for support for her husband as he now navigates life without his partner, while raising their three young boys alone. Your generosity will help ease daily financial burdens and contribute toward the boys’ education, so they can one day finish college, a dream Annie held so close to her heart.
We humbly ask for your prayers during this incredibly difficult time, and if you feel called to give, any donation—no matter how small—will help carry her family forward with hope.
Thank you for honoring Annie’s life, her faith, and the beautiful legacy she leaves behind. May God Bless You All.
