TO MY BELOVED GRANDMOTHER, MAY SHE REST IN PEACE
My Dad's mom passed away last week in the Philippines
EUFEMIA MALABANAN MAGSINO
She was 98 years old. She is survived by 9 children(including my dad), 25 grandchildren (including ME), and several great-grandchildren (including my nephew Justin and niece Allura). My Mom and Dad left for the Philippines last weekend while I was in Las Vegas. I didn't know my grandmother at all cause I was here in Chicago. The last time I was in the Philippines was in 1990. I haven't gotten a chance to visit her since then. Please keep my grandmother in your prayers this week. And please pray that my relatives and especially my parents have a safe trip back home after the funeral.
God Bless you all,
Vernon
PS I please ask you to send a small prayer or note of good will in my "comments" section, it would be much appreciated.
