Tita Glenn

Someone close to me passed away last Saturday.

Tita Glenn was my mom's bestest of friends --- her childhood friend. They used to be neighbors and schoolmates. They did a lot of things together. They were only separated when she and her family moved to Manila. Time and distance was never an issue between Mama and Tita Glenn. They continued to get in touch and never really lost their bond.

Growing up, Tita Glenn was a constant personality in our lives. She and her husband, Tito Bing would usually sleep over in our house whenever they were in Naga City. It was always fun having them around. The house would be filled with loud chatter and rambunctious laughter. Tears of joy would sometimes roll down their cheeks. They were a bunch of comedians. It was always great seeing my mom, dad, Tita Glenn and Tito Bing together.

She was always very jovial. She was one of the nicest people I have known. As one of my godmothers, she never tired of dispensing advise and making me laugh and feel better during some of the toughest times of my life.

Her passing left a very huge whole in our hearts and lives.

She will be missed. Terribly.
