For Lisa and Tatiana Bonny

This story is one her family shared. Cathiana leaves behind two girls Lisa age 6 and Tatiana age 12.

It is with a broken, devastated and saddened heart that I share that my loving and amazing sister of 35 years was killed this past Monday. After years of emotional abuse at the hands of her husband she finally gained the courage to stand up for herself and was met with violence. My two nieces are fine and incredibly strong but sadly they witnessed the murder/suicide.

My relationship with my sister over the last decade was not the best due to her husband. Despite that I have always been her big brother and her protector since birth. I tried so many times and so many ways to protect her but there was only so much I could do.

I know my life will me we be the same. I know I may never stop crying. But I will live stronger in your name, in your love and for your nieces.

I share these news for two reasons. First, any and all prayers and thoughts for my family at this time is greatly needed. Second, I am embracing my new purpose in life which is to share my sisters story and fight to end domestic violence. Any and all opportunities to share her story I want to take advantage of and I am hoping this network of amazing people can help in this cause.

RIP sis.
