ma as we fondly called her, was an incredible woman. She was kind, gentle, funny and generous. She opened her home to everyone making each one of us feel the most important person in her world. She was also our family’s historian, our link to the past and our guide to appreciating simple joys of life.
Ima, your stories will live through us. We’ll miss you but grateful for the memories you’ve left us to cherish.
Love from Ohio,
Bong, Rose and kids
Thank you Lola for being a wonderful grandmother to me and Finola! I will remember the time you told me that I was your favorite grandson of all time! 😊
Sharing fond memories with Ima during important occasions over the last decade. ❤️
Thank you, Lola Ima for having the opportunity of spending precious time with you last month in Florida. I was very happy to hear stories and being with your reminded me once again about my own grandmother - your sister, Mommy Osie.
You were always thinking about my comfort and well being during my visit, making sure I already ate and I have with me the things I needed.
Thank you and rest in peace with Lolo Duarding, yung parents, siblings and other relatives up there.
