She enjoyed singing, dancing and spending time with her family…especially her grandchildren. Most of all, she cherished bringing her family together through her passion of cooking and baking, whether it was teaching her grandchildren how to make traditional Filipino dishes or having a warm meal ready to enjoy. She was adored by her community and deeply loved by her family. As a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend, Rosalina’s legacy of love, warmth, and togetherness will live on forever.
