Gone Too Soon

Filed under Office | Friends


A very sad update on my last entry...

Our office is still grappling with the shock and grief for the sudden and senseless death of our office assistant Leigh.

She was mercilessly killed early Friday morning on her way to work when she was held up in a jeepney by 3 still-unidentified men. Witnesses say that she resisted and struggled with the robbers and was fatally shot in the process. Since her bag was taken by the criminals, authorities were unable to immediately contact her family.

It goes without saying that this is such a horrible incident and our hearts are still in pain over the loss of such a beautiful and promising young woman. Our thoughts and prayers will surely be with Leigh and her grieving family.



Like a rainbow fading in the twinkling of an eye,
Gone too soon...
