Announcement of the passing of Mrs. Jasenka Stojic:We have learned with sadness of the passing of one of CHPAA volunteers, Mrs. Jasenka Stojic.
Jasenka is one of our most dedicated mission volunteers, who joined our missions with her daughter dentist, Liliana Stojic, DDS to selflessly serve the underprivileged people of Cambodia in three missions. She had special affinity with the young children and older people. Even though she does not speak Khmer and very little English, she speaks the universal language of “Love”, a “Love Without Borders”. Called affectionately “Mama”, she was a role model for her dedication and her huge heart. For that reason, she was voted as the sole recipient of the “CHPAA 2016 Outstanding Volunteer Award” at our 7th Annual Fundraising Gala on November 4, 2016.
Jasenka was born and lived in Croatia all her life. She was a medical student when she first met her dentist husband. They ended up having two beautiful daughters, one of whom is Dr. Stojic. Being a devoted mother, she believes family came first, therefore she ended up dropping from her studies to raise her daughters. Jasenka’s new adventure in the last few years with CHPAA has become the highlight of her life. She never missed a chance to tell her story about her CHPAA missions to anyone who would listen. Even during the last few days of life in the hospital, to quote Liliana, “her attending physician would bring Medical Students to “Mama” so that she could tell them about Cambodia and to inspire them with her volunteer work with CHPAA”.
She returned to her beloved Croatia during the pandemic in July 2020 after spending time visiting her daughter in California. Unfortunately, she contracted Covid-19 during her last hospital stay and she passed away just a few days later, on May 5, 2021.
Once again, CHPAA family is grieving for the loss of one of our most outstanding volunteers to COVID-19. We have lost a global citizen, a humanitarian and a CHPAA family member! On behalf of our CHPAA family, I would like to extend to Liliana and her family our most sincere condolences. May Jasenka Rest in Eternal Peace!
