The family of Michelle Silvertino, the stranded woman who died while waiting for a bus ride in Pasay City on her way home to Camarines Sur, received groceries from the Philippine Army (PA) which they can use to establish a small retail(sari-sari) store , the military reported on Thursday.
Lt. Col. Darren Ringka, acting commanding officer of 565th Engineer Construction “Bicol Builders” Battalion under the 51st Engineer Brigade, said the military wanted to provide a stable source of income for the family of the 33-year-old single mother.
Ringka personally handed over at least 10 bags of groceries to Michelle’s mother, Marilyn, who is now taking care of her late daughter’s four orphaned children, at their house in Barangay Burabod, Calabanga, Camarines Sur. Michelle was found unconscious by a concerned citizen at a footbridge in Pasay City on June 5. She reportedly had a high fever and experienced difficulty in breathing. She was brought to Pasay City General Hospital where she was declared dead on arrival by attending doctors.
