Staff and Members Mourn Tragic Loss of One of Our Own

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sad news of the passing of our friend and coworker, Jasun Bautista.  Jasun passed away on the morning of January 11th, 2025. Jasun was a valued member of our team, serving as a Youth Development Professional at our Club Sites, most recently at the Ron Estabillo Clubhouse in Guadalupe.

Jasun was more than just a great team member—he was a beacon of positivity and dedication. He came to the Club every day with a smile and a genuine excitement to make a difference in the lives of the youth in our community.  Jasun had a passion for making people smile and he showed it every day at work. He poured out his love to the youth of the community he grew up in. His enthusiasm for his work, his studies, and his athletic pursuits inspired all of us who had the privilege to know him.

In this time of grief, let us remember Jasun’s smile, energy, kindness, and the meaningful impact he made on our team and the young people he served. We remember him through his passion for music, love for wrestling, or his joking demeanor.

Club Members and staff have navigated this difficult time by creating a memorial to him at the Estabillo Clubhouse.  His family has placed a focus on the importance of his work with youth and that his impact was a breath of fresh air for them all.
