Mom, its been 5 months now and I miss you so much. You really were a great person who made us laugh and cry. So many memories race through my mind. The sisters and myself catch ourselves finding dimes - a thing Myra started with us, thinking this is you thinking of us. The Sangalangs were in town on July 4th and said they saw butterflies thinking they were you. Oh Mom, know that you are soooooo missed. Watch Dad from above. Its so hard without you. I miss our phone calls so very much. I miss...

Like my grandma, Linda was a bright little star that friends and family orbited. It hurts so much, especially for those close to her, to lose this light, but these bright little stars have a magic that stays with us even when the flame of life flickers out. God keeps her close, imprinted in our memories and in our world, forever. My deepest condolences to Dr. Maniquiz, their wonderful children and families, all of their tremendous relatives and friends.

My heart mourns the passing of Linda. I miss her vibrant personality and weekend afternoons as a young boy enjoying the most fantastic food and camaraderie. Those memories will remain with me forever.

Mrs. Maniquiz you were always such a ray of sunshine. I feel privileged that I got to meet you and spend time with you. You always made me feel welcome and part of the the family. You will be greatly missed by anyone who had the pleasure of meeting you.

You were an inspiration to me as an adult for the kind of family I wish to have one day. You truly were a gift from God.

God bless.

Maniquiz family, my heart is with you. I wish that I could be there with you all to pay my respects. Linda has left a wonderful legacy in her children and grandchildren, and we are all better people for having had her in our lives.

It makes me so happy to see the posts of everyone gathered together, sharing stories and laughter. Those moments are so heartwarming and bring such consolation at such a sad time.

You are all in my heart and I wish you peace.

We are sorry for your loss and wish we could have attended the prayer this evening .But I cannot leave Barbara. she is bed ridden for the past month and receives in-house nursing and therapy. She lives with confusion. But she understands what is going on this evening, and we both have Linda and your family in our prayers.
