A memorial dedicated to the memory of Eva Ekvall
This is an online tribute dedicated in memory of Eva Mónica Anna Ekvall Johnson. Eva Ekvall was a Venezuelan TV news anchor, author, and a former Miss Venezuela. She was a finalist in the Miss Universe 2001 contest.

Eva Ekvall had a degree in communications from Universidad Santa Maria in Caracas. Eva Ekvall was fluent in both Spanish and English since she had lived in the United States, and because she attended Academia Washington, a bilingual school in Caracas. She held the title of Miss Venezuela in 2000 and was the third runner-up in the 2001 Miss Universe pageant. She first appeared on TV in the Televen show Las Rottenmayer. She was also famous among Venezuelan fashion magazines including Ocean Drive and Sambil among others.

Eva Ekvall's father, Eric Ekvall, is an American of Swedish-Hungarian descent, who has lived in Venezuela since the early 1980s and worked as a political analyst. Her mother, Dawn Johnson, was born in Jamaica, and once ran a small modelling agency in Alaska, where she met Ekvall's father.

Eva Ekvall married radio producer John Fabio Bermúdez in September 2007.

Eva Ekvall sadly died on December 17th, 2011 at only 28 years of age. This online memorial has been created in order to honour her life and her brave battle with cancer. May she rest in peace.
