Rest In Peace

Luz Sayo Salumbides
1914-2006


At 3 am today, my beloved grandmother finally decided to go meet God in his kingdom. She was 92 and she led a very good, eventful and happy life. She supported 7 kids all by herself (my grandfather died of a heart attack at 30 something years old) my dad was in the 5th grade at the time. Besides all this adversity, she managed to get all but one through school and through college. Everyone from her kids to us grandchildren and even the great grandchildren owe her a lot of gratitude and honor, for if it wasn't for her perseverance to make sure that my dad and the rest of his siblings ended up with good educations which eventually led all of them to have good lives which in turn gave us kids a chance to enjoy life as well. It is with a heavy and sad heart that I bid farewell to my beloved "Nanay".

We love you always and your legacy will be with us all.
