You held my hand for the past 50 years and helped shape me into the man I am today. Everything I know, everything I am, is because of you. My courage and my grit are lessons you taught me through your love, patience, and example.Without you, I feel lost. Now I need you to learn how to be “me” without you by my side—and it’ll be the hardest thing I’ll ever done. Harder than running a company. I miss you already, Papa. I miss our “Good morning,” “Kamusta ka,” and “Good night.” But most of all, I will miss you asking, “Kumain ka na?” I always knew that was your way of saying, “I love you.”I will carry your love with me every day, in everything I do, for the rest of my life. Guide me with Mommy from heaven. Please visit me lagi lagi with Mommy. I miss you so much, Pa. So, so much. ✞️
