Dearly Departed

Amidst the hustle and bustle of the long weekend, after all the escapades, roadtrips or sweet escapes trips out of Manila -- it isn't just right to end the holiday without paying respect to our dearly departed.

We visited Daddy, my dearest Lolo from Mum's side this afternoon at Himlayan Pilipino Memorial Park, Tandang Sora. Good thing that the caretakers did their job well and Daddy's graveyard looked clean with trimmed grass and plants on the side.

Advance Happy Birthday Daddy, it has been 23 years since you left us, but your memories to Mum and Mommy and the kwentos about you will remain in me forever. Thanks for making sure that we are taking cared of  :)

Daddy Jun, Charisma, Ike, Anne, Mommy Fely and Aunty Rosie. Himlayang Pilipino, November 2011

PS. Am turning 25 on the first. I'll take extra shots for you on our upcoming birthday, that I promise :)
