Farewell Auntie Flora 😔. I can imagine you are now walking with Uncle Dodo, Riana and Bae Edang with glee. You know how I am thankful for all you’ve done for me and my siblings. The only thing I can do now is to remember you in my prayers. My sincere condolences to my cousins.
In behalf of the Sison family, I would like to extend our deepest sympathy for the loss of our beloved aunt Flora, my godmother.
No words can express how I am deeply sorry , I will forever cherished all those happy conversations we had over the phone , love you Ninang❤️.
It saddens everyone here at home knowing that Mama Deody’s very close family relative and best friend has gone. The beautiful memories are all that’s left to treasure. It is, however, the love in each memory that is the glue that holds us all (Minerva, Prosty, Elna, Zeus, Lea, Eden, and Ellen) when we need it most. Let’s keep the flame of family love burning. We join you in prayer at this time of grief. Your loss is our loss.
Dear Minerva
I know what great stock you come from . I bet your mom was amazing and you will see her again
My sincere condolences
Terry and Beth
