Helena Pombas, Newark, NJ—Helena Pombas peacefully passed away in her sleep last night, September 3, 2024, after a long battle with cancer. She was the cherished wife of Rui and the devoted mother of Melanie and Stephanie. Helena was known for her loving smile, big heart, and her constant readiness to help everyone around her.
Helena’s passing has left her family and friends heartbroken. Due to her illness, Helena had to stop working, and her dedicated husband, Rui, also left his job to care for her until the end. The family is now facing financial difficulties as they work to fulfill Helena’s final wish—to be laid to rest in her homeland of Portugal.
A fundraiser has been organized by Sonia Rybicki to support the family with funeral expenses and to help bring Helena back to Portugal. The goal is to raise $8,000, and so far, $20 has been donated by Liana Noriega.
The community is encouraged to show their support and help Helena’s family during this difficult time. Every donation will make a difference in ensuring that Helena’s final wish is honored.
We are deeply saddened to learn of Helena Pombas’ passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family during this challenging time.
