I want to say thank youuuuuuu po. For sharing your inspiring history, to your jokes that made us joyous and for always reminding us to pray and be thankful for everything that we have... It's hard to process that you're physically gone but I know spiritually you're here watching and guiding us above with Him po. I remembered the day you're here, when you're taking a nap and farted so loud, so alarming while Ateng Mhai and me hiding beside the bed while we’re watching something on iPad, the familiar bullfrog noise made us looked each other and laughed as we hold our lips to prevent sound  yet it wakes you up and you joined us laughed. I still remembered the golden anniversary, you'd always asked me a question "whose daughter are you?" And I jokingly answered "of course, to Connie!" that always made you laughed so hard po. It feels good to reminisce. It feels good to turned back time and repeat the past but if ever this will repeated it could be a story. Story of your greatness sharing to the future. Today, I will always look up to you saying  thank you for creating a memory in our hearts and mind. Thank you for kissing our cheeks when the priest said "let us offer each other the sign of peace." Thank you po! Thank you so so much! You never failed to expressed how much you cared and loved us. I love you so... so... so much po! I know you're smiling up there with Jesus showering you kisses and whispering you I love you as you expressed to us before. Thank you po! I love you!

My grandparents... I was flipping through pictures to find a reading for your funeral grandpa and found this 8/12/19. We seriously thought you were going to be with us longer.  
I hope my marriage will be like yours and grandma, one crazy loving couple that may have their differences but at the same time it was like my brothers say, it’s all for the family.  We love you so so much

Thank you soo much grandpa
Passed all these tears, we will be okay
Because thanks to you, 
Were alive today

Through your sacrifices, your perseverance
And your endless love
You had your Priorities set
Lord and us above

Grandpa, you have done so much
We will cherish all the moments shared
You made it so evident
How much you truly loved and cared

From sleeping on your belly
To holding your hand
Our love will continue beyond
As it is God’s plan

Sure we’ll miss all the stories 
The inspirational and memorable acts
But we’re glad your happy in heaven 
Even though We would love you back

Grandpa, we know you will guide us always
Your legacy reigns forever
Within your kids kids kids and on 
And beyond when we finally meet all together 

Keep watching and guiding us grandpa
Keep your smiles and laughs strong
We’ll live on because of you
While your in heaven where you truly belong

Love you grandpa 

family nor prevent you from waving back to your family back in the Philippines before you time has come. You fought hard grandpa, and it was such an eye opening and inspiring experience we all witnessed. Although you may have looked like you had many years to come, God couldn’t wait any longer to have your loving and kind hearted soul to accompany him. You showed us the heart of someone who’s sacrificed so much for their family. But, beyond those sacrifices is having the heart to give up your life on the cross and give your whole family hope like how Jesus did. Now you’re in a better place grandpa, watching and guiding us. Make sure you always have you laptop and cellphone next to you at all times because we will be messaging you through our prayers. As we promised, we will take care of both your golden wife and your legacy. We will never forget you grandpa, we love you so much, and thank you for everything you’ve done for us.

Your grandkids

ing and having to swim across a river just to get school. When it was lunch time you’d have to walk and swim back home so your mom would feed you and save money. To add on top of that, you only had one set of clothes. When you were in the hospital bed you told me that you would ask your friend to read their textbook for a class you weren’t even in because you felt that any information would help you. All this hard work you put in to get an education led you to a government job for your own barangay. Us grandchildren can’t imagine having to deal with so many obstacles just to go to school, so we have no excuse to get a good education. This sacrifice was the key to starting a family of your own. You were able to raise 5 kids who follow your values and created an army of grandkids whom all look up to you. After constant reflecting on your life, I found that your decision for letting mom marry dad was a blessing in disguise. You were first hesitant with dad because of the age gap, but you saw the love and care he had to offer to mom. If you didn’t say yes, your family wouldn’t have the opportunity to take on the American Dream. So we’d like to thank you for making such a blessed decision and of course my dad as well for serving our country. I know it may sound weird but I believe you are the Manny Pacquiao of our family. You’re not one of the best boxers of all time neither a senator in the Philippines no matter how much you look like it, but you sure were a fighter. You would argue with everyone usually about family values. It would be hard to fight back, but in the end you just wanted everyone to learn and emphasize love and respect through your intense lessons. Not only were you a fighter through your voice but you were a fighter with your health. No matter how sick you were, you still felt strong.  Even if your fighting one of the most dangerous illnesses out there, you still felt superior. No illness is going to prevent you from spending quality time with your fami

Dear our beloved grandpa,

I’ve never thought I’d stand before you as you watch from above so soon. It felt like it was just yesterday when you drove me to my first day of school. It felt like it was yesterday that I’d come with you to seafood city so you can fill out a lotto ticket and then take me to sari sari store so you can get me a toy. It felt like yesterday we celebrated your golden anniversary with grandma. Everything happened so fast, but it’s only right to share to everyone how much of an amazing person you are. There was one thing that would always make you happy and that was God’s blessing of family. In your apartment the only decorations you have is a bunch of pictures of your family. As a child you’d always be in your room playing solitaire while one of your home videos from a cassette was showing family events from the Philippines.  I remember one day, you called me over to your room because one of the cassettes you were playing said on the bottom right my birth date which is May 16. When I was watching the cassette  I saw that our family back in Philippines were building a house and they were all saying happy birthday to me. As I got older you upgraded from a cassette player to a laptop, and you were finally able to contact you family easily through Facebook instead of using a number used to call the Philippines for only 30 minutes. I miss the old days where you and grandma were the legendary tag team for your grandchildren when most of us were still in elementary. Grandma would be the one who’d make us breakfast, and then you were the one who’d drop us off to school in your corolla. You would make sure we all got to school on time and returned home safely. I remember you telling my brother and I that you used to work in the rice fields back when you lived in the Philippines, but you felt that getting an education was better for your future. From what you told us, getting an education during your time was very difficult. I cannot imagine always walk

Uncle Roger, death may have taken you away from us but it could never take away your memories.You will always be in my heart in your own special place.Rest in peace Uncle Roger. Thank you for the love and care you gave to me , especially when I was still a little girl until now.The day before you left, nakapagchat pa tayo ng Tuesday morning, tapos nung Thursday nun I received a sad news from Jeng that you're gone. I miss our chats every morning. Masakit iku makapaniwala, likuan mo na kami. But you're free now from all the pain and sickness. I know you will watch over us from heaven like you always do, kahit malayo ka samin parang laging nandiyan ka pa rin. Till we meet again, Uncle Roger. We love you and miss you every single day.

I still can't believe that you're gone, i know you're safe there now it's just to sudden, i still want to hear your jokes your laughter, i still want to spend more time with you when we get there but God has a better plan for you, we all love you apo, guide us more guard us and i know even if you're in heaven you will and always will love us.. I Miss Your chats I love you po 

Hello Granpa. We weren’t together for much, only during the times you visit the country which only happen for a couple of weeks.  But we were able to create many amazing memories. I remember every time I go out or have some business outside, you make sure to spray me with your perfume. And when we’re out for some bonding time, you always deliver your undying dialogues saying, “Ai kapale ne? Ai ot mknyan”.. When someone is looking for somebody even if you’re not the one they’re looking for, you always answer with, “Oi nanu keni. Folllowed by your charismatic smile, the kind of smile that makes everything seem fine. You always remind us to finish out studies. Grandpa, I have graduated. But I am sorry I failed the board exam. Nonetheless, endless thank you for your support and care for us. Now we won’t receive chats anymore that always goes like this: “Kamusta na kayu. Ok thank ingat kau lagi miss/love God bless you always” Granpa, thank you very much. No more pain po. Always watch after me from above, please. I miss you and i love you Granpa😢

Po, you are the best of the best. We may have shared little memories with you, but all those memories made our childhood special. You may be physically far from us but you always make us feel closer whenever you send us messages, like “gudam/pm musta nakayu ken” and “take care. Godbless. Loveyou always”

I may not be the best grandchild you had but never did I felt that way from you. You always make things comfortable whenever we are with you. You always praise us like we’re the best. Thank you for being our greatest supporter/fan. We will continue to soar high until we reach our dreams. And I hope on that day, you will watch us from above with a smile.

Here’s a picture of you and me on my 18th birthday. It’s one of the best night of my life and you made it extra special just by simply being there. Thank you, po. ‘I will love you, always and forever.’

I love you too Pa; How are you Pa?
Miras naka Pa?; Dumalan kami ken Pa; Munta ka kene bale Pa?; Sorry nandin ne Pa, i love you; Malapit nakami king gate yu Pa; Ok Pa mimingat na ka rin ken, God bless, mamaus ka if anything...”
Txt and Fb msgs, single senteced words i would always sent( replied) you.

At this moment adding a memory on your obituary is just the hardest thing a daughter would do. Lossing you is lossing a part of me, Pa. I wasn’t ready yet...you promise me(us) na galing ka pa, that together we’ll conquer this serious illness. You’ve been so strong for us and showed us a lot of hopes. But you turned around and decided the other way. It hurts Pa, atna king kasakit Pa, but I understand coz even at the last moment of your life your love, patience, understanding, sacrifices, & care for us were deeply felt., even ngening ala naka physically with us. These wonderful gilfts you instilled in everyone of us are more precious than anything in this world, Salamat PA😭These will live on in our lives and in our hearts. 

No more pain and worries, Eke paburen i Ma ku at buo tang pamilya, Pa. Rest now peacefully with our Creator. Heaven gained an Angel and so are we...we love you dearly, PA. You’ll always be remembered, 
#Papa’sgirlforever❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😘😘😘😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏

To my father in law, a thank you isn’t enough to say for how much you have done for us. You have provided so much care and love to everybody around you especially my kids and my husband. I truly appreciate that.  You have always supported us through tough times and just through any time.  I know you are in a good place now.  We love you so much. We miss you papa. 

My grandpa, Rogelio M. Dabu Sr., is one of the most inspiring and loving individuals I know. All he needed to make himself happy in life was seeing his family being happy. Grandpa sacrificed a lot so he can get a good education and raise his own family. Him sacrificing a lot led him to have five successful kids and an army of grandkids whom altogether love and are inspired from all the things grandpa has done for us. As a grand child, grandpa would always take care of me when my parents were at work. Grandpa was the person who would always bring me to grade school and keep me safe during my childhood. We’ve shared many memories that I will treasure forever. And most importantly we will never forget all his sacrifices and love he’s put upon his family. May he Rest In Peace with our love and support.

Grandpa, thank you for all the love and support you have given me,..and your entire family and friends. You set a perfect example of what it means to give it your all for the family and God. Through your love, sacrifices, strength, and perseverance you have given us through God’s grace, you are an inspiration and blessing to us all.  I will miss all the life lessons, life stories, helping you, helping me, and you just being by our side but I can rest knowing your living your eternal life happily in heaven. You will forever live strong in my heart, mind, and entire self Grandpa, I am not here without you. Your teachings and life will be carried on through future generations. I will see you in heaven in due time Grandpa. Thank you for everything Grandpa, I love you Grandpa. 

Even though I wasn’t the best grandson to my grandfather, he was a very wise and caring man. We sang happy birthdays to him, we visited him in his apartment, we greeted him with blessings, and we cared for him. Even though my grandfather won’t see me grow, get awards, get a job, and have a family in person, he can still watch me from somewhere special. Love you Apu Roger.

Even though I was not the best grandson to my grandfather, he was a very caring man to our families.

Even though he won’t see us grow, get jobs, have awards, and have families in person, he can still watch us from somewhere else. Love you Apu Roger.

Thank you Grandpa for everything you have done fo us. You have always been there for my family no matter what. I love you Grandpa and I miss you everyday. 

Grandpa, I am proud to be able to carry your name as Rogelio the third. You have done so many things for me and have been there to support me in whether it was sport or school. I will remember all the thing we both had. Like how you would always joke around with me when I would be late to school and even look at my medals and congratulate me. After every achievement I had the first thing you would say you’d go through the door is always congratulations or good job and how proud you are of me. You have always been my biggest supporter. I will continue to make you proud in the years to come. You fought hard for us and we will continue to do the same. I love you grandpa. Thank you for all the memories!

Pa, Jr. here, it's my birthday today, this is my loneliest, but i'm not sad, knowing that you're at rest now, no more pain. Every year i reflect on my life and count my blessings,,, YOU'RE ALWAYS ON THE TOP OF MY LIST,,, I thank God for blessing me a father like you; a GOD FEARING, SELFLESS, SIMPLE, JUST and A LOVING father. You've mentored me many things in life, not only through your thoughts and also in setting the life you live as a perfect example for us. You embraced a simple life, you never demanded too much for yourself, sometimes none at all. So sorry i relied on your "IM OK,,, TAKE CARE/LOVE YOU ALL,,," i never exerted extra effort in asking you "HOW YOU REALLY ARE,,," but i know you wouldnt tell anyway, coz you wouldn't want us to worry, that's how you love us,,, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH PA & I MISS YOU EACH DAY especially today. But i know that you're in HIS hands now,,, Rest in peace Papa,,, GOODNIGHT,,, SEE YOU TOMMOROW,,,

Roman is already saying how much he misses his Apo. We love you so much Grandpa and we know you are watching us!❤️🙏🏽 We love and miss you so so much!
