Tay, this is definitely one of the most heartbreaking, painful goodbyes I have to make. This may sound selfish, but it hurts me so much. I wish I had more time with you, I wish we had more laughs, I wish I could hear your voice one more time, I wish I could see you smile just one last time…. You will remain my rock, tatay. You never gave up and you fought until the end. I will never forget everything you told me and taught me. You never failed a day to tell me how much you cared about me and how much you loved me as your daughter. You always put your loved ones before yourself. You brought so much joy to this place and created so many happy memories that will last forever. Tay, I love you so much and I will never forget you. You have been the best to me and to everyone around you. Don't worry about us, we will do as you told, we will take care of ourselves and of each other. I won't let you down, Tay. You will always be in my heart and in my mind.

I will always remember you as a strong, courageous, genuine, kind, loving, caring, honest and true person. You always talked about your love ones in the Philippines, your passion for martial arts and your own story.

I hope you're feeling better now, I hope you found peace up there. Please continue to watch over us from where you are.

Until we meet again, my precious, my tatay.

« O Lord, we ask you, on behalf of the soul of your servant whom you have called out of this world; look upon him with pity and let him be conducted by the holy angels to paradise, his true country. Grant that he who believed in you and hoped in you, may be admitted to eternal joys. Through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord, Who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns world without end. Amen. »

Rest in peace tay.

I love you,
Abi
