Kuya Bay, until now I still cannot believe that you are not with us anymore. It's been almost a year since God put you to sleep. I will never forget how much you made all of us feel, Joie, Hans, Malc and Kris included, your concern and love. I will forever miss your laughter and how you would never forget to greet me on my birthday. It was nice spending almost everyday of my growing up years with you. You were like the Big Brother I never had. Thank you for loving me and my family. What comforts me is the thought that you are now with my Nanay. Love you Kuya Bay. :)))

The world is really a better place because of people like you. Time may not have given us a chance to get to know you more but you are living through the stories of our good friends, your children. And they can only tell stories of your kindness and good heart. We miss you but we are comforted by the thought that another angel is watching over us. Rest in peace, Tito.

One of the memorable experience I had with Tito Edwin was during their first departure to US. He was and always a caring person, he never forgets about his friends. He told me "To take care of my mom" none that I know he said the exact words with my sisters!. Tito thanks you! We all know that u fought a good fight and lived your life to the fullest! Your family will be well taken care of, I believe! And God will always protect them! To the whole family...Be strong and He's in a safe place!
