Hi tita emily. We are very sad to hear lola laling’s passing po. I’ve been looking to my old albums here in fb to search for her pictures and found some. We will remember lola as very kind and sweet to everyone. Regardless if family or not. We love her so much po I remember, she remembers my bday kasi its the same day as ate gay’s kaya kapag hahatidan ko siya ng food every bday ko, she always has something for me. Madalas cash kahit may work na ko sad, kasi di ko na siya madadalhan ng food this year i dont know if mama told you po, pero nung araw na dinalaw nila si lola sa bahay niyo, napanaginipan ko siya days before. In my dream, siya daw yung dumalaw samin sa bahay ni lola carmeling. Tapos sabi ko daw kay lola laling, “bakit kayo pa po nagpunta dito? Dapat kami nalang po” tapos after nun, dumalaw na po sila mama sainyo kasi baka sign na daw po yun. Di po ako nakasama kasi i had to work. Btw, i am josephine’s child po hope i can visit lola before she laid to rest. Yun lang po, be strong tita and ingat po kayo.

Those we love remain with us, for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade. Because a loved one's gone.... Those we love can never be more than a thought apart. For as long as there is memory, They'll live on in the heart.
