“Today, we mourn the loss of Phuong, a remarkable advocate, trusted friend, and champion for the colorectal cancer community.
Phuong dedicated her voice and talents to ensuring patients were heard and valued. She was especially passionate about supporting young patients facing colorectal cancer and elevating the experiences of those diagnosed at a young age. Recognizing the unique challenges these individuals and families faced, she worked tirelessly to ensure their needs and perspectives were represented in research, care, and advocacy.
As a research advocate, Phuong brought authenticity, wisdom, and purpose to every conversation. She reminded us that meaningful progress happens when patients are true partners in shaping the future of cancer care. Her contributions advanced the field and inspired researchers, clinicians, advocates, and patients alike.
She supported our community, lifted others up, and helped people feel seen and supported during life’s most difficult moments.
On behalf of our team at Fight CRC, we extend our deepest condolences to Phuong’s family, loved ones, and all those whose lives she touched. We are grateful for her friendship, leadership, and lasting impact.
Her voice, advocacy, and commitment to improving the lives of others will not be forgotten. We will honor her memory by continuing the work she cared so deeply about and carrying forward the hope and determination that defined her life. We will never forget her.” - Anjee Davis, Fight CRC CEO
