November 13 is the day of interment of the president of our school. Yesterday, we all went to pay our last respects to him in the school gymnasium, and this morning, we waited at the cathedral for the hearse to arrive.
It was a sad goodbye to the father Eagle. There were so many mourners who attended the concelebrated mass. After that, when we went outside the church, I received the great news from my sister---Internet is back, but the dial tone of the landline phone is still absent.
The picture I have posted here is me and the other 4 part-time clinical instructors. We are all exhausted walking from the gate to the mausoleum of the owner of the Sanctuary of Peace, the president himself.
The mourners all wore white tee shirts and denim pants. The male close relatives wore the national costume (Barong Tagalog) while the bereaved wife wore black.
Farewell father eagle. Do not just fly...Soar high!

yes it was. but we thought, maybe he needed to rest now because of his illness. incidentally, his final diagnosis was pneumonia and not the colon cancer
