She was known for her indomitable spirit and courage, keen intellect, infectious smile and laughter, generosity, love of gardening, spending time with her family and incredible gourmet cooking, even having prepared and served Filipino food to some of the medical staff who treated her.

I Love You Auntie Pinky! You will be missed but never forgotten. Love, Kat
Pinky will forever hold a special place in my heart. She was generous, loving and kind. Pinky meant so much to so many people. For me and my family, she embraced us as her own and comforted us when we needed a mother figure or a friend. She fed us, loved us and made us all laugh! I will always be grateful to you, Pinky! When my mother passed, you filled a void in my life and my children’s lives. You graciously and sweetly even told my kids to call you “Grandma Pinky”. And from that day forward they felt the love and kindness that only a grandmother can give. I will never be able to put into words how much you will forever mean to me and my family. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your beautiful life!
We love you always and forever,
Labe, Raul, Alexio and Bella Aguilar
I have so much fond memories of Ate Pinky. She’s my first cousin but I only got to know her more when I went to the US. It was in 1982 when I first came to San Diego. I lived with my other cousin but, I used to visit and sometimes stayed in their house in Cantamar, and ate Pinky and kuya Steve were always so welcoming to me. I remember how good and fast cook she was, often excited what she would prepare for us coz I know it will be delicious. And on top of that, she has a good funny story to share. It was 40 yrs ago, but I still remember her smile and laughter that filled the room everytime. I will miss that most about her. I love you ate Pinky ? rest in heavenly peace ?
I had the pleasure of working with Pinky when at Lockheed and LEIDOS. She was always very professional and nice to work with. May she rest in peace.
I only ‘knew’ Auntie Pinky through my dearest friend Katherine Cattolico. Kat shared so many wonderful memories about her that at times I felt like was sitting at Auntie Pinky’s table about to enjoy her delicious cooking and fun stories. What a gift she was to all who knew her personally! May you all feel God’s blessings and Aunty Pinky’s presence in your hearts as her legacy lives on in each of you!❤️??
We are so grateful to Auntie Pinky for her warmth and love as she and Uncle Steve welcomed us into their home when we first moved to DC and became our found family here. Auntie Pinky brought life, energy, and joy whenever she walked into the room. We will never forget her Filipino food cooking sessions (and will continue to make ukoy in her memory), exploring community events in Centreville and making weekend trips to Donna and John’s, and laughing so very, very much together. We love and will miss her very much.
I feel blessed to have so many happy and wonderful memories of Auntie Pinky. To say she was beautiful inside and out is an understatement.
I spent many of my childhood years with her and the family, when they lived in San Diego that I felt like her second daughter. When we were little she had always bought my cousin and I matching dresses and clothes, and we loved it!
I will always remember her wonderful laughter, cooking and meals! In recent years, she showed the same love and affection towards my own family, we will all miss her very much.
With love and affection,
Ramos Family-Gene, Sherryl and Nicholas
We were so blessed to have met Pinky and get to know her the last 5 years. She had such a cheerful spirit and joyful presence every time we were around her. It is so wonderful to have Pinky and her family as our neighbors. She often blessed us with her delicious cooking and extended her love to our son Dominick. We loved talking about her garden and she loved watching Dominick play outside. We dearly miss you grandma Pinky!
Love,
Dominick, Yanneli, Daniel and Winston
Words failed to come to me upon the news Pinky had left this world having, instead, flown to the arms of Jesus our Lord and Savior, and is now experiencing Heaven’s splendor…. I was so of the belief she was going to beat cancer yet again; the news came as a startling, disbelieving shock.
Our friendship has gone back decades–with some of my favorite memories involving late evening hours in the office. Irrespective of whether there was a certain “someone” we were commiserating about, or griping about some new ‘corporate’ policy, or even lamenting the latest development on the ‘world stage’, Pinky and I would often find ourselves offering support to one another–as well as active engagement in solving all the world’s problems, of course…. We just needed to make them all listen somehow.
I’ll miss our many storied discussions over these many years. I’ll miss the laughter experienced by she and some of our other colleagues over her pronunciation of ‘peanut butter’. She did finally get it right, and I know it was a concerted effort on her part. I’ll miss her demonstrating the proper way to cut up a pineapple, and I wish I had taken a video of her doing it, now. I’ll not be able to see a pineapple without thinking of Pinky, and I guess that is somehow appropriate given the fact ‘pineapple’ is the symbol of hospitality–and how welcomed she always made those within her sphere of influence, feel, but most of all, I will miss my friend, her warm smile and infectious laugh.
Thanks for being you; thanks for being a wonderful friend.
Pinky was so full life. She loved to cook for a house full of family and friends. Oh and her laugh was so contagious. I will miss her but will she will always be in my thoughts.
