Let me spare a little time to say thanks to my grandmother, Nanay Lorie or Loreta M Bautista, who passed away due to multiple complications. It was always be the best time being with her and throughout the years, you never failed showing us how much you cared and loved us. I will always miss all the best food in the world, reason why i grew so big. Will miss all the bonding moments with you and most of all, the arguments that we had because I'm too "pasaway". I will always remember how you defend me from all the bullies way back then. I will always treasure all your teachings, those teachings that leads me with who I am today. I may not be the greatest apo, but I want you to know that I struggle so hard to reach some of my goals. If it wasn't from you I will be nothing.
Up to this moment, I'm still digesting the fact you're gone.Somehow I still ask questions that only you can answer.How I wish you were still here and ask you those questions. But I have to live and move on. It's really hard to believe for so many years, you were always there. And now I can only see you in my mind and in my dreams perhaps. I wanna tell you how much I really miss you and love you. If only I knew this will come to us, I will surely spend all my time being with you. Take you in any place you like.
No words can express how much I am grateful to be your first "Apo". The only thing I can be proud of.
Your memories will always remain in our hearts. Thank you and Vaya Condios Nanay Lorie!
- From your very first apo.
