It is with a heavy heart to announce the passing of our mother Marcela Patricio Respicio on the morning of April 02, 2020. She lost her battle to cancer at the age of 67. She leaves behind a husband, three kids and four grandchildren. She fought to the end until she can no longer bear the pain and suffering.

We are all here in the memory of our mother so that we may acknowledge and share both our joy in the gift that her life was to us and the pain that her passing brings.

It's hard to say goodbye. We wish that we had more time and perhaps during that time, we had spent more of it together. We wish we had not lost her to her illness, that things could have been different for her and for us. While we know that she is at peace and that her struggles are at an end, there is pain and sadness. But even though she's gone, she has left a legacy of her love, kindness, generosity and perseverance. The ways she touched our lives will remain and we will keep those memories alive by keeping her in our hearts.

We feel honored and privileged to have had you in our lives. You always loved us unconditionally and were the best wife, mother, and grandmother anyone could wish for.

We love you so much and we will miss you the most.
