She was a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother,and cherished member of our family.
She was a loving and kind woman who was truly down-to-earth, patient, and generous with her heart. She had a beautiful way of making everyone around her feel loved,welcomed, and cared for. Her family meant everything to her, and the love she gave so freely will remain a treasured part of their lives forever.
She had a joyful spirit and loved to dance. She also held a special place in the Filipino community, where she proudly participated in pageants representing Filipino associations. Throughout the years, she was honored as a princess and was often crowned queen—a reflection of her grace, beauty, confidence, and vibrant personality.
She was also a talented seamstress with a remarkable gift for creating beautiful dresses. With her own hands and creative spirit, she made many stunning gowns and garments. Each creation was a reflection of her talent and dedication, leaving behind not only beautiful pieces but also memories woven into every stitch.
When she wanted to have fun and enjoy herself, one of her favorite places to go was the casino. She loved the excitement, laughter, and good times that came with those outings. These moments reflected her ability to enjoy life and create joyful memories with the people around her.
Above all, she was devoted to her family. She was the second eldest of six siblings, and throughout her life, family remained at the center of her heart. Her greatest joy was seeing the people she loved happy and together.
She leaves behind a beautiful and loving family: her seven children, Flordelina Miller, Iluminada Pasion, Lorna Bisset, Rey Viagedor, Maria Lilis “Mayette” Alpapara, Arlin Viagedor, and Ronnie Viagedor,15 grandchildren; 21 great-grandchildren; and six great-great-grandchildren—a beautiful family spanning five generations. Each one carries apiece of her: her love, her strength, her kindness, her laughter, and the memories she created with them.
Although our hearts are broken by her passing, we are grateful for the life she lived and for the countless memories she gave us. We will remember her dancing, her laughter,her beautiful creations, her generosity, and most of all, the love she had for her family.
Her physical presence may no longer be with us, but her love will never leave us. It will live on in her children, in her grandchildren, in her great-grandchildren, and in every generation that follows.
She will live on in the stories we tell, the traditions we carry forward, the dresses and memories she left behind, and in all the little pieces of her that live within each of us.
You were loved beyond words, and you will be missed beyond measure.
Rest peacefully. Your love will continue to live on through many generations. You will forever remain in our hearts.
