Corazon C. Aquino (1933 – 2009)

Farewell....

Farewell to a woman who left a legacy to the whole world. A wife, a mother, friend to many, who went against a tyranny and triumphed.

A symbol to the whole world that a dictator can be ousted by a peaceful revolt, initiated by the masses, and a united Filipino spirit.

She had given us, the younger Filipino generation, the chance to get a glimpse of democracy during an era when democracy was humor.

No matter how she was criticized during her term as president of the Philippines, her critics cannot take away that most valuable gift she had provided us.

To her family and to her friends, I, together with my family, extend our condolences.

Your spirit will live on…..
