Our beloved friend and colleague, Michael Caga-anan Aguhar, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, February 20, following a sudden medical emergency. In the weeks since, we have come together alongside his partner, Irina, and their young child, Zoyaโ€”whom Michael loved beyond measureโ€”to honor his life and begin the process of remembrance and healing.
