The motorcycle he was riding on went out of control and threw him off of it. He landed badly and hit his head on the concrete gutter. According to those I talked to, he died immediately. He was riding along with a neighbor and both of them had some to drink when the accident happened. His neighbor survived, though. They were coming home from an overnight swimming party organized by our cousin, had some alcohol to drink and went home.</p><p><a

They&#8217;re currently residing at Barleta Subdivision. I just wished I could have helped them more but, unfortunately, I have problems of my own. Contrary to what you see here on our Family Blog, we are also not doing very well but we do try our best to make our situation work for us. Feeling sorry or down will just build up more negative energy.<span
id="more-129"></span></p><p>I never looked at him in the coffin, simply, because I don&#8217;t want my last memory of him to be that way. He is a very fun and lively person with lots of energy and I want to remember him that way.</p><p>He was interred at San Pablo City Memorial with my father who died many, many years ago. The funeral was attended mostly by friends and families.</p><p>Below are some pictures from the funeral.</p><p><a

No one wanted this accident to happen but, the question is, could it have been avoided if the two were not influenced by alcohol or if both of them were wearing helmets? Maybe but we will never know.</p><p></p><div

She was 70 years old when she passed away. As far as I know, the cause of death was her Skin Cancer. The cancer already ate through her face and according to my wife, it was already attacking her internal organs in the abdominal area. Unfortunately, the cancer was never really treated because the cost of the medicines were somewhat expensive and I guess because of that the cancer spread and attacked other parts of the body.<span
id="more-27"></span></p><p>The death of my Mother-In-Law was a very sad moment for all of us and we hoped that we could have done more for her before she died. Anyway, me and my family would like to thank everyone who came to the funeral and to those that donated their time and money in supporting my Mother-In-Law in her times of needs. Again, thank you very much!</p><div
