I don't remember much when I lived in the Philippines because I left to the United States when I was 4. However, even though I've always lived far away from T. Nene and T. Cesar, they were always part of my life.
In the 1995 DeLeon family reunion, T. Nene and T. Cesar stayed with my parents for a few days. At that time, my parents babysat my daughters, Amanda and Amber so T. Nene and T. Cesar grew fond of my kids and they would always play and talk to them. They would always give me money whenever they'd see me. I would try to return it and they would say, "No Ella, keep it, this is for the kids." They were the one of the cutest couples, in my eyes.
Then in 1998, my dad and I flew to the Philippines to handle some family business, on my dad's side. We didn't stay with T. Nene and T. Cesar but they made it a point that we had dinner at their home and made sure she got the mango and ube ice cream that I loved! We stayed across the way from their home with T. Emmy and T. Cecile but T. Cesar and T. Nene would visit frequently to talk and visit.
As years went on, they stayed in California with T. Nene's sister and I ended up picking them up to come stay at my house for a couple of days. I spoiled them and got them whatever food they wanted. At that time, they were a bit older so all they wanted to do was be at home to talk and joke with my mom and dad. I picked them up because it was the least I could do to repay them back for the kindness and love they've shown me and my family throughout the years. I enjoyed having them with me, even though it was just for a couple of days.
That was the last time I saw both T. Nene and T. Cesar.
Even though I didn't see Tita again in person, I was thankful for Facebook because I would see posts of T. Nene playing the piano, or getting all dolled up to go somewhere or just a glimpse of T. Nene and her sweet smile. Seeing her in pictures or videos would warm my heart and remind me of the beautiful soul that she was.
Tita Nene, although you're no longer here on earth with us, I want to tell you how thankful I am to have had you in my life. Your love, patience and generosity always made me realize how blessed I was to have you as a "Tita". You touched me in so many ways, either through words or just a look and smile. I will hold you and my memories with you close to my heart....
Times like this make me realize that the best things in life are the most simple things in life. The simple things in life to me is "family" and the memories we have that will last a lifetime.
God bless you, Tita, may you rest in peace. I love you always!

Rosalina or "Nene," as she was fondly known, filled so many roles with incredible aptitude. She was a loving wife, an excellent teacher, a caring mother. To me, she was simply "lola." When I think of lola, I imagine her with lolo in their house in Kabihasnan. With lush, well-kept gardens, the living room bright and airy, tastefully decorated according to the season. I think of summertime when they would bring out the inflatable pool for us to soak on especially warm days. After lunch, we'd go on a siesta and wake up to a freshly heated pandesal with multitudes of spreads for merienda. Sometimes, just before dinner, we'd play several rounds of sungka where I would be subjected to lola's teasing (I wasn't a particularly good player).
When I think of lola, I think of a warm, yummy feast. I never did quite figure out how but, even without telling her, she always knew which food you liked best and would, without fail, serve it everytime you visited. More than the meal, it was always a pleasure to listen to lolo and lola's banter. Lola had dry humor often laced with sarcasm that would always catch us in surprise. She also liked her puns.
Lolo and lola showed me a love to aspire for - patient, enduring. While not openly affectionate, one could tell that they loved each other very much. This love was freely shared to everyone. They always made sure that everyone felt included. On Christmas eve, we would attend the Misa de Gallo then go to Kabihasnan for Noche Buena. There, lola would express her love in one of the best ways she knows how - decadent, painstakingly prepared meals... With her special homemade hot chocolate drink after.
Lola has always been a role model. Whether it was on garden upkeep (she sent me several plants before to help brighten up the house but I didn't have her greenthumb), music (she taught me basic piano; we even did a piano-lyre duet), academics (she was the head in the biology department and was an invaluable help in my thesis), and overall, just a human to aspire for. A kind, steadfast presence.
When I think of lola, I feel a strong sense of yearning - I miss her terribly. However, thinking about the selfless love she had nurtured us with, I am happy, knowing that she's at peace, that she is with the one she loves most.
