Dear Mommy I,
Saturday was Aizik's fifth birthday. I really wish you and Papa could have been there, but I know you both are silently watching over him up there. As I watch him grow up, I slowly recognize the little similarities Aizik has with you, like his little dimple on his right cheek (I'm not sure if that's true, but yeah).  And his birthday is 06/07/2020, the day you (the sixth)  and Papa (the seventh) were both born. What I'm actually trying to say is, God has so many ways to remind us that you both are here, whenever the time. As the school year is starting to end, and your anniversary dates are coming up, I just wanted to give you an update, you know? like old times. And I'll continue to do my best to stand up in front of the church and sing, just like you told me to. But not for the attention, but to praise His name.

All my love,
Nana.

Dear Mom,

I miss you so much every day. Your love and guidance have shaped who I am, and I carry your memory with me in everything I do. I wish I could talk to you and share all the little moments of my life. Thank you for everything you did for me. I just wanna see you in heaven and were smiling together watching our kdrama or Indian drama❤️we’ve all grown up, Tiferson has 2 babies now, dad changed the room, and I’m turning 12 next year.

3 years later and you have not been forgotten. You will never be forgotten. Your beautiful heart and soul made an impact with everyone you connected with, your presence is truly missed! And hard to forget. Your memory is  our keepsake. God has you in his keeping, we have you in our hearts. Continue resting peacefully in his hands, dearest Ipha. Til we meet again at Jesus feet

Today marks 3 years, Mommy I. 
We miss you dearly with all our hearts, continuing to have faith and resilience everywhere we may go. 
Three people have graduated this year, and we are so proud and happy for them.

I am doing well, Mommy Ipha, I hope you're doing well up there.  Summer's beginning, and we kids are getting older every day.  Right now,there are many kids transitioning from middle school to high school, and also getting ready for their last years of high school. 

Watch over us with your abundant love, and keep us in shape, wherever you may be, Mommy Ipha. 

All my love, 
Nana.

Happy 3 Years in Heaven my beloved sis🤍

Hi Mommy Ipha, 
its been so long already, but it feels like time flew by so fast, I'm slowly getting used to all the changes, with you and papa even though its been 3 years, its just something I cant get use to because you guys were a big part of our lives. thinking about you makes me want to cry but I know that you're at peace now and your in Gods hands, so I'm very happy. I'm pretty sure only you and Papa have protected me and knew how to raise me when even my mom didn't know how. And if I'm being honest you were the only person I trusted because I knew if I came up to you with a frown you'd make me happy again, you showed me that I don't need anyone to tell me how to be me because God created me, not them. you also taught me  what love is, and that I should love everyone even if they hate me. You taught me that discipline is a good thing, it teaches you more good, and you taught me to always forgive and forget, to never hold a grudge. But when you passed away I forgot everything you taught me and threw it all away, I started talking back, giving attitude, and its all because I didn't wanna think of you and just be sad all over again. but I remembered that you also taught me that Family will always be a big part of my life and will always stay in my heart so, you will always stay in my heart and I will always remember you and everything you taught me Mommy Ipha. 

Love your niece, 
                 Jadee Arongaw

From karma:  

HI sister Ipha I miss it been 3 years and I been missing everytime I go school or anywhere I still think of you. Everytime I look at your photos I cry . I Love You Sis.

Today marks 2 years…
There’s so many things to say & tell you if you was still around. Xavier turned 1…Abigail is now 2…Saraiah is 3 turning 4 pretty soon and so much more. 
I learned to stop wishing I can turn back time & learned to face forward and just keep pushing through no matter what bc the only goal we’re all shooting for in life, is to be in the same kingdom in heaven with you, to be called & most loved as Gods righteous people.
Tong fiti pwos esapw fokkun muuj Mommy 🕊️🤍

Dear Mom, 

We all feel sad after the day you've passed, We all are still in grief after the day you've passed, but they all were bc we still have great memories from the past that we can't forget, You would always smile, to show your greatfullness, you'd always sing us a song to make us happy, and you would always be strong bc you would know your family was around you for support, And I know everyone wants to see you again soon, and I do too, I love you, and hope to see you on the other side.  🥹

hey mom its me your k-drama twin lol, its been a year, school has started I thought I was able to keep everyone close together because I know you've been always wanting that for all of us. I miss those random calls and tell me that it was on accidents, those will never be accident calls to me, It helped me smile to know that you were just checking on me and my siblings. We are doing the best we can, I as well. I miss you very much mommy ipha, I wish you were here to tell me to keep going. I love you🤍💜

sincerely, Tybo

It’s been a year now… times haven’t been easy for the boys but what in life is? They walk around smiling keeping their chins held high, and just continue feeding people with positive energy. Reminds me a lot of you Mommy Ipha. No matter who, what, or how that person is you always influence the best out of everyone because that is how you truly love and care for one another. You influenced me on how to show love, and it shows upon your kids and everyone else you’ve impacted here on earth. I love and miss you 🤍

Sincerely your son, LeeJay

Sis,
So many Times i Have Written, Erased and Re-Written-- it's Hard to Put into Words the Many Emotions-- i Just Know for a Fact that i Really Miss you- I miss ur Constant checkups Whenever "You" Feel that i'm falling💔-- u Always Knew and u Were always there-- i Seem to Have Lost my Light Since u haven't been around to help me Spark it back up-- But i know ur Looking down telling me like Always " Fall Seven times Stand 8times" u Will always be One of the strongest people i know-- Always one of my greatest Role Model-- A fierce Warrior of God--Most Loving , Humble Sister Bestfriend and Role Model❤️ i Love u And Miss u Very Much-- i will see u on the other side💜

It’s been a year now that you left us. It’s still a little Rocky without you here and I realized how it’s crazy that so many of us depend and rely on you so much. I wish I was able to see you again face to face and say it more often how amazing and strong you are. Thank you for carrying all those burdens strongly. I’m so happy you are free from it. I’m more happy you are safe with our one and only Father God, being free from all this pain, sufferings, and everything that drained and dragged you down. I just wish to see your beautiful joyful being in the room with the whole family and just vibing and enjoying each other’s company again. You always reminded me to be the better example as one of your eldest kids…God only knows me and how I’m managing. I miss and love you Mom. Fokkun kinisou ngeni kot ren fanitom. Thank you so much for being one of the many good people that impacted me the most and partly raising me to grow into following the path of Jesus Christ🤍

They say that with time, all will heal. However, time never seems to slow down for us, to have the capability of doing so. 
We all miss you… but knowing You are at Home, puts our minds at ease. How we wish to see you once more. 

May you continue happily living the life of eternality with our Father God & watching over all your loved ones. 

To the beautiful flower who captured the eyes and hearts of many, no matter how time flies, you will remain in our lives… Always and Forever. ♥️ 


So strong and so gentle and fiercely for our Lord and her children and her family and her friends loving and loyal and playful interesting in the goodness that she could see and hear in each of us amen

I remember the beauty of her praying for her children for her family and for her health. a beautiful soul.

I remember those days when I was feeling down, you were there to motivate me, I remember I wanted to learn how to play the ukulele, you were there with a bright smile that lit up the room, you were always there to keep me happy, that is why I love you and papa, not just because you guys are my relatives but because you guys were my aunt and grandpa, but because you guys were, thoughtful, kind, and always willing to help people in need, and also because you guys would always make us kids smile. I love you both sincerely-jadee

To my loving mommy ipha, 
you are the kindest loving, sister, mother, wife, cousin, aunt, grandma, grand daughter, and all of those things that god has gifted you for, we will miss you, and hope and pray that we will see you again, I love you very much, from your beloved neice, Jadee.


I had gone to your work place recently and had asked about you, and found out by your lady boss. I can only remember the last time I had seen you, you spoke so strongly to me it didn’t click in my head that you have been sick for awhile. You were a dear good friend to me everytime i walked into your store you welcomed me like a friend would and didn’t judge me from how I looked or spoke.. you spoke so highly of the man above even with the foul language I spoke around you, you did not judge you spoke kindly and gently like no one has been to me. I am deeply saddened to lose a good friend like you. I wish I have met the daughters and sons and husband and grand baby you spoke about with so much love.god bless your family and god bless your soul martina 

YOU we’re and have always and will continue to be the realest one who showed out for everyone around you. I know there is no other gentle loving soul like you that anyone can ever come across… So much I wish could’ve been done but god had greater plans with you and for you. But I know the god loving and fearing woman you are, you are happy with everything god has in store. May you continue to rest in eternal love 

Upwe poputa won=You we're my protector my energy for Christ with his Work ,and he gave me you in most time for me to serve and experience his love in my life and  all the goals&excitements for hhis purpose.and in mysterious ways ,Christ had you to be my very OWN, in everything ,through battle's&to conquer ourselves to face the world together we Move Mountains...

What a Journey we had together!
Everyone we knew,known or run into mistakenly thought I was you& you we're me😇 especially they witness the faith we had together or even realize the bond we had for Christ and he was always infront of us🙌🙌🙌that's how much faithful the relationship we had for eachother.❤😇
For God know's deep within my heart, loosing you to him was like half of my heart💔💔💔.but to understand that im able to pick up the pieces you left behind..Realizing Why did you left me a photo of your kids in my hand.not that i dont know where to put it or can't find a spot for it on my wall.but looking at it without you !? They seem faded not  understanding how much our faith became one that no matter our differences we came together,in that one of a kind.that they can't seem to figure out our yes or no's😥but Christ will break that Chain.
You we're fun i was the opposite of fun but Nupwe ruemon pwipwi ra chufengen"what a feioch"we would always say,for we know who we are in Christ...
I thank the creator for all the memories i had with you they will always be a part of my Journey while i walk through the valleys and the shadows of death .😇like KingDavid👑and will always remind me of what FORGIVENESS can do if we just let go and let it walk👑 right through us to remain Unforgettable to even see 😎who to help on the way...
I love you always My FineSamol&My Sunshine🌅🌄 Forever❤  see you later in  dreams&off course ill meet you at the edge🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏HeavenlyCelebratingYou👑😇

     Before I even came to Washington, YOU reached out to me and told me that you could help me out when I moved to Washington. I really didn’t know you enough back then, and I wondered “how could someone be willing to help a person out, when we don’t know each other like that” 🤣 I never planned to move to Washington, but when I did and we got to see each other, it was like a whole different feeling I’ve never felt before. You were so welcoming and smiled so big when you seen me and my family. Got me feeling so awkward and there you were so jolly. I couldn’t believe someone could be so excited about meeting a “nobody”.  (That’s how I honestly felt) 

    As we got to know each other, and saw more of each other I started to realize that you were so much more than just another relative. You were a sister of mine, put on Earth to help me understand the ways . I had so much respect for you and I really enjoyed our time together. I loved to listen to every testimonials you had to share. (Literally every time you would share, I would have tears in my eyes🥺) Your stories were so inspirational, and I always relate. 
  
 When you’re around you always made me feel comfortable, and welcomed. You did not fail sis. You were always you. True to yourself and carried yourself with grace.  I knew that you were someone I could always go to with anything. I truly admired your strength, and beauty. The beautiful family you had and your big heart. Your heart was always on God and I witnessed you overcome so many obstacles with God by your side. You were a God fearing, humbled, down to earth, and one of the many people I looked up to. I’m thankful to have been a part of your journey and you a part of mine. You taught me to be patient in life and live life abundantly. I will miss your hugs and laugh. Your big smile with the most beautiful dimples. Wish we could’ve made more memories together. When my time comes, hope we will meet again. Until then🤍Ily sis. 

Love always, 
Iann🤍🤍🤍

Ipha beautifully taught me.about growing my Faith by praying consistently. In the same way that I would, and I do, keep my promises with my family & my friends, I have needed to learn that, not only is praying to Jesus So helpful in my struggles, Also. Helping myself form a Relationship with Him.  And His Father...Our Lord...helps strengthen my Commitments with myself to Continue deeply Caring for All God's Creations!
Yes, Beyond what is easy, familiar,
And favored by me. Time to Stretch beyond my comfort, now!
So much & So many need. Stronger & Gentle Help now.  So much is broken. A.caring look, a reassuring word.....like Jesus has shown us. 📖🙏
Yes my BFF Ipha 🙏📖🙏❤

Dear Mommy Ipha,

When I came here I felt like I wasn't suppose to be here cause the people I might they were so different then the people I know, but when I meet you, you changed that, you made me feel like I belong here and that I fit it.
I was so confused about our cultured but you were one of the people that helped me understand. 
It was always so fun when you were around you'd always make everyone smile or laugh.
When ever I'd see you, you'd always have a smile on your face.
It's still hard to accept that your gone but I'm happy that your not hurting anymore
I miss and Love you Mommy Ipha♥︎

Love,Jayna♡︎

To my dearest mommy.i 

You were the joy that brought this family together. You were the reason why each & everyone of your brothers & sisters loved coming to church or anywhere around you. You brought smiles to there face , & your smile still shined the brightest. You made sure everyone was okay, you were there for each & everyone of us. From the babies to us youth, to your siblings & then to your parents. One thing I love about you is that you treated us equally , with the same love & respect you had for everyone else. You’d make anyone feel welcome. You always came out your way to check up on anyone even when you were not well enough, you did. 

I could hear you calling our names from the back & everyone of us will look cause we all have a’s at the end of our names. 

Your songs are the most meaningful thing I could have right now, I listen to them & I know that you meant every word you put into your songs. One of God’s most truest soldiers.     

I love you unconditionally mommy Ipha. 

- sincerely , sylvia <3

Dear mommy Ipha, 

I remember when I was young and you were one of the only people to ever come check on us in the house in Lacey… you told us no matter what happens next always keep our heads held high and think of the best. I was young at the moment and I didn’t really know what that meant. But now that I’m growing, it all makes sense. No matter what situation we face we must overcome it and become the best from it. I can never thank you enough for the Love and Joy you gave to us all. No matter how bad I was or the mistakes I made, you overlooked it… you always still loved and took me in as one of your own. Your word before you left keep replaying in my head.. it’s my duty to make sure my brothers will become the best they’ll be. Your heart will always be with us momma, I Love You. 

Sincerely, Your Son LeeJay ♥️

For 15 nd a half years you helped my mom raise me to become who I am today, no other words I can say except but I love and miss you. Theres a saying I will always remind myself of you: “Your wings were ready but our hearts weren’t” I will miss and remember you day by day. 

your beloved son, Tybo Arongaw

Dear Ipha, 

Where do I even begin..?

As the sun continues to rise and set, to the stars shining through the darkest nights, the beautiful flower still blooms. Despite the absence of its physical presence, it stays still in its own beautiful garden. Through rain and storms, it stood pleasingly, blissfully, and strongly. Never once had I seen a single petal fall. Although it brought a simultaneous feeling of worrisome and happiness... I gaze at you in complete awe. How courageous you were. The irreplaceable smile and light you reflect off of the sun. How that never went unnoticed. Needless to say, you brought me plenty of comfort & love withal. With open arms, you welcomed me into your garden. Inevitably drawn to you, I aspire and seek to even be a fraction of importance to another as you were to myself. 

Moreover, there are not enough words to express how I long for your presence, our conversations, and your encouragements. Not only were you an inspiration to myself but to many. For that, I am beyond grateful for the time we had together. I will never forget each and every bit of them. 

To the Selfless, God-fearing, Beautiful flower who captured the eyes of many, may you bloom ever so gracefully and prettily in your new garden. 🕊


I love you ♥️

I remember being a kid and we would all be at yigo bonding. I remember you and my siblings leaving the island and just feeling so down. It’s all a glimpse because I was just a little kid. And then we reunited on  April 30, 2021 ❤️ You were already at the airport when we landed and I was walking over to the baggage area to get our bags. Then I hear “Are you Chuukese?” I looked over and I see you 🥺 I smiled back at you and walked over to you to hug you. So delicate. So beautiful in the yellow long dress that you wore. I turned to Daniel to introduce him and you told him “Thank you for loving my daughter. Thank you so much” 🥺 For the couple days I was there, I felt your love. I felt your energy. So humble. So positive. So beautiful inside and out. One night at your house, you read versus from the Bible that spoke about family. And that, I kept in my heart like I said.  When we left that night, I hugged you and I whispered in your ear.. “I love you, stay strong okay?” 😭😭😣😣 When we reunited again, it was July 2, 2021. And this time I was looking at where you waited inside the airport and tears dropped from my eyes. You weren’t there waiting. But because I told you to be strong, I will definitely also be strong cause that’s exactly what you did. The strongest human being ❤️ REST IN LOVE. 

One night at your home, I was sleeping and dreamt of you coming in Tifferson room where we slept and I looked up at you. You stood at the door and you smiled. You said “Read Corinthians…” and then you also said a verse but I couldn’t remember the morning I woke up. The next day, we cleaned the basement and I was fixing your flowers. I was putting your picture up and then I realized there was a verse on it. and it said “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Corinthians” 😢🥺😔❤️ Thank you mommy Ipha. Mommy misses you so much!! 

All the memories I got to make with Aunty are never forgotten and cherished forever. Growing up I wasn’t  able to spend time with Aunty and family it was always thru A FaceTime call. Getting older doe I was blessed to be able to visit Aunty and the family in Seattle while I was growing up in Arizona. One recent memory that I cherish is the time when some of the family from Arizona came out to Seattle while Aunty was in her condition. Even doe Aunty wasn’t 100% physically good to go out, her loving and caring heart took the time  to come and visit and pray with our family.  Her faith, her humbleness  and work for the lord was always shown in the way she acted and moved. Aunty Ipha is never forgotten in my heart and will always be remembered. Love you Aunty♥️ Much love to my brothers and sisters and family from Wichap love y’all ♥️🤞🕊.

My beautiful mother,
I miss and love you dearly, you gave me love that nobody could ever replace. I miss every moments we’ve had together. Even if your not here I will carry on your legacy and continue to smile like you. You will always be my number 1 role model. You may be gone, but never forgotten.
Your daughter vony 🤍.

To the mother who had the brightest smile that gave off positive vibes, who had the powerful angelic voice that everybody enjoyed singing along to, who also had that strong faith & bond with God. I miss & love you each day,  please continue to smile down at us with that beautiful smile you hold. I still can’t get over the fact that your not here with us physically mom, but we’ll never forget the memories we had together as a family, I miss your singing in church, I’ve always wanted to sing just like you & I miss your motivational messages you’d send me each day just to help push me in school, until next time mom love, rianne🤍.

My Dearest Sis Finanisi Ipha❤️
Thank you for all you’ve done for my girls & my family since we moved to Seattle, thank you for always visiting us, thank you for all the time that we’ve spend together, your words to me always inspired me to be better in everything, to be humble, to be strong & to keep having faith that God is with me all the time. Thank you for teaching my girls a lot.  So thankful to have met you. I love you & I miss you so dearly. Till we meet again My Beautiful Sis. 



My beautiful dear Queen, 
I am in disbelief, I really can’t believe that you left us physically but, I am still thankful and blessed because even when you left it felt as if though you never did. I still feel your presence with us. Although, I miss your smile, your laugh, your voice, I miss everything. Your joyful and amazing aura you bring into the room, I miss it so much. Everything that you supported and did for me, you would always put your heart into it and I am so thankful for that. You are truly my inspiration mom. I wish I could’ve done more for you, how I wanted to spoil you with riches but, you reminded yourself and everyone that you were grateful and thankful for what you had at the moment and that having God in your life was the most biggest blessing that impacted you. I love you very much mom, I will always remember your encouragements and supportive messages you would share with me daily. Rest in love and peace mommy. Forever and always you will never be forgotten and remain in our hearts🤍

Where do I start Ipha?
You left so suddenly I didn't get to grasp what happened. I am still in disbelief. I am sorry for not checking up on you as I should. I miss you terribly. Your patience, love, & words of encouragement is what I am missing terribly. You're the big sister that I've taken for granted. I am so sorry. Thank you for your love. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you for your patience. Thank you for always being my hype-Woman.❤ May you rest peacefully my beautiful sister. 

Sweet Ipha,
My sister, my Mother, my friend.

From the day I walked til the day you left you were always there for me. I know god used you well on this earth to express his teachings of kindness, patience, and love. Im greatful for being your brother.

Til we meet again
I love you and miss you.

God needed you most 🤍 you are very much loved and appreciated 🥺❤️ 

Your memories are unforgettable🕊 You inspire me in all the things you do for our Heavenly Father! You have taught me and lectured me so many times to be humble and have strong faith through God during the toughest and greatest moments. You words are always comforting and that is what I miss so much. I know you are in a better place but without your presents nothing will be the same. Your presents brings joy, positive vibes and laughter where ever you are sis. My heart is so heavy missing you so much but I will see you later 🕊🤍
