Saturday 20 June 2026 Newsletter: Peter Heyes Passed away

 -Our sad news : R.I.P Peter

CBBVO In Loving Memory of Peter Heyes

Words cannot express the sadness we feel at the loss of our dear friend, Peter Heyes. For more than twenty years, Peter devoted his life to serving others, especially the people of Cambodia. He spent months each year helping those in need through book distribution, food programs, youth exchanges, peace-building initiatives, dental missions, support for orphanages, English education, scholarships for students going to schools and universities, and countless acts of kindness that often went unseen. Peter never sought recognition or praise. He simply saw a need and responded with compassion, generosity, and love. Because of him, thousands of lives were changed, countless young people received opportunities they otherwise would never have had, and many families found hope for a better future. Peter’s legacy is not found in buildings or awards, but in the hearts of the people whose lives he touched. His kindness crossed borders, cultures, and generations. We are forever grateful for his friendship, his servant heart, and his unwavering commitment to humanity. Thank you, Peter. Your life made the world a better place, and your memory will continue to inspire us for generations to come.
Rest in peace, dear friend. You will never be forgotten.

Personal Note

Tourism is growing in Siem Reap Angkor Cambodia, as a tour guide, I am busier and busier from month to month but I am happy to see that our family condition is growing a bit better. What it makes me even more satisfied and full of smile is when I see my sibling grows better with their educations.

So in the short term, as long term is not yet defined, I very much look forwards to grow with my actual profession, as a Tour Guide who speaks English to earn a living and to continue supporting my big blended-family. I like to have friends all over the world and keep learning from each other. My job does not only help me to get out of great poverty but it helps me to go far beyond to help my community.

Tourists returning to take part of educating of Cambodia as a perspective of the outside world that our young generation can get in no other way. So, we encourage all of our supporters and friends to consider becoming one of our volunteer teachers, in helping,supporting, sponsoring, to some schools in Siem Reap, Angkor city.
