In July last year, our Tito Ollie called me in the middle of his Manila visit and we quietly made plans to surprise Mama weeks ahead of her 73rd birthday. | MBOpinions READ:
yesterday Friday. Masses were offered at Quiapo Church, Christ the King Church, Manila Cathedral, Sto. Niño de Cebu Basilica, National Shrine and Basilica of Our Lady of Walsingham , St. Barbara Parish Church , and other churches.
I thought it would be hard and painful to write this, but I am consoled by the idea that Mama had been reunited with her own parents, and by the memory of Mama’s last birthday with our visiting Tito Ollie. Looking back, that last meeting between Tito Ollie and Mama might have meant something more profound and a reminder of Mama’s faith. Tito Ollie’s name 'Lazaro' is that reminder. New life.
