August 5, 2009, a nationwide special holiday here in the Philippines to commemorate the funeral of our beloved former President Corazon C. Aquino. She was born in January 25, 1933 and died on August 1, 2009 at 76 years old. Cory Aquino is considered to be the mother of democracy after she fought peacefully thru people power on 1986 to free every Filipino from the 20-year dictatorial Marcos administration.
I woke up at 10am today and switched on the television to watch the live broadcast of Tita Cory’s final mass and funeral procession from Manila Cathedral to Manila Memorial Park where she will rest in peace beside her husband former Senator Benigno Ninoy Aquino.
Although it’s raining in Metro Manila, still so many Filipinos lining the streets, waiting, wanting to view for the last time the beloved 1st female president in Asia. This depicts how well she’s loved by the Filipinos, the nation grieves, and the nation mourns.
WE LOVE YOU TITA CORY & PAALAM.
