Tita Cory, A Fond Farewell!


Written and said many times, the Filipino people and the Republic of the Philippines are forever deeply indebted to you Mrs. Aquino for gallantly restoring democracy, freedom, liberty and decency to a people and a country that suffered years of brutality, fear, alienation and conjugal dictatorship.

At this crucial time in our history when shades of the dark past flash anew in our midst, we need your voice to inspire us once more to remain strong, united, determined and focused to fight for our dreams for a better Philippines, a better government and a better set of public officials. You left us too soon Tita but who can question the will of God?

Now that you are in the great beyond, remember in your prayers our country and us while we heed your final wish that we pray for one another and for the country. Thank you for what you and Ninoy gave to the country --- your selfless sacrifice and patriotism. Your humility and preference to be ordinary by refusing special treatments although you deserve them make you extraordinary. For your strong faith, we thank you --- you showed us to love and trust God even in time of great adversity, trials and sickness.

Rest in peace Tita Cory and until we meet again. Thank you and may the Father welcome you with an open arm, tight embrace and a sweet smile before He shows you His heavenly place which we all long to see.

May the Lord bless and keep your orphaned children, Ballsy, Viel, Pinky, Noynoy and Kris.

Farewell!

“ . . . [A]nd, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”

(Romeo and Juliet Act III, Scene 2)
