Gilas Pilipinas Women’s Basketball announced on Saturday Abong’s passing.
“In loving memory of our teammate and friend Ashlyn Abong #21,” Gilas Women’s said in its post.
“Quiet, kind, and strong — that was Ash. She may not have said much, but she always said hi first. That small act meant everything. It showed her heart — gentle, thoughtful, and always looking out for others.”
“Ash, your jersey was #21, but to us, you were one of one. On and off the field you gave everything.”
