Father, source of forgiveness and salvation for all mankind, hear our prayer. By the prayers of the ever-Virgin Mary, may our dear Lola Espie who has gone from this world come to share eternal happiness with all your saints. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
I loved going to the Secretario’s home to visit, bring home beautiful vegetables from their garden and share a meal. Mrs Secretario had the most generous spirit and taught me to cook Filipino food. It was one of my favorite memories. I have been friends with Myrna for many years and got to meet Mag, Clarissa and Tony throughout the years. I am sending my aloha to the family and wanted to share some cherished memories as I remember my time with Mrs Secretario.

I’m forever grateful to both of you for sponsoring my studies. You provided room and board and set me up with a part time job and many other countless things. I’m also thankful for your guidance and mentoring. God bless Uncle Mag and the Secretario Family. Rest In Peace Auntie Espie.
Love and Aloha,
Willy, Marilou and Emily Cristobal
