1 August 2009- The Philippine's beloved former President joined our Savior in her final resting place.
People gathered to have a glimpse of Pres. Cory's remains. Filipinos used to name our former President Tita Cory.
Yuppies and loyal supporters alike, paused from their work and paid their respect by lining up at Ayala Avenue stretch or looking down from their buildings. 
I know most people who were at Ayala Avenue just had a vague memory of what really transpired before and during the reign of Tita Cory. We were only educated with books and documentaries we see, and I am very proud to say....
Once in our lifetime, a woman stood for all the Filipinos. Armed not with ammunitions but with the power no person could overthrow--faith and love of God and for the people.
Goodbye Tita Cory and Thank you for the gift you so willingly handed down to every Filipino generation...Democracy.
We will try to uphold what you have started!
