Eina Kwon’s obituary details are yet to be revealed, but her funeral will be done in the presence of her family and close friends.
Our deepest sympathies are extended to Sung Kwon and Eina Kwon’s entire family following her awful murder on Tuesday in our Belltown neighborhood.
In addition to being an active community member, Eina also owned and operated Aburiya Bento House with her family.
The loss of a mother and unborn child due to an unwarranted act of violence is just one of the many horrible aspects of this tragedy.
Her husband is a heartbroken but strong husband and father enduring unbearable suffering while healing from his wounds.
Our thoughts are with their minor child, who will grow up without their mother, and our larger community, which must deal with another painful, avoidable tragedy that leaves us feeling incomplete and hurt.
Everyone wants to feel safe and secure in their neighborhood. For AAPI and immigrant communities, in particular, this loss fuels agonizing grief.
It exacerbates prevailing fears due to far too many instances of prejudice and intolerance and heartbreak rooted in love for one another.
