It is with great sadness that we share the news of the tragic passing of a colleague and a great friend, Annamarie Rosales Dejaving Cubian, who passed away on Sunday 21 March.
Annamarie who was known as ‘Anna’ to her colleagues, was part of the business support team in the Dubai office. She was a devout Roman Catholic, a loving wife to Bernard, a friend, and a long-term colleague of ours.
Anna joined HKA in Dubai on 26th of May 2013 as a Document Controller and was later promoted to Business Support Administrator on 1st of January 2016.
The nature of Anna’s job was such that she had to support many stakeholders, not just relating to her daily business activities, but in other areas of the community, and she always did so with a smile, respect and grace.
Anna had a real passion to help those in need. Her and her colleagues led the CSR initiative and coordinated donations to people affected by both the Taal Volcano eruption and the Cagayan floods in the Philippines.
She had a great love for exploring cuisines from different cultures and really enjoyed sharing meals with friends and colleagues, her motto was always “a happy tummy, a happy life”.
Her unreserved care and support, always delivered with humility, dedication, and a sincere smile, is what we will miss most about Anna. Her contagious laugh, beautiful smile, passion for life, family and friends, and her caring and considerate nature, will be forever etched in our hearts.
Thank you Anna for your contribution and support to HKA and our communities. Our thoughts are with Anna’s family, friends and colleagues at this time.
