Noemi never complained, she never quit, she never blamed anyone and she always, always had a smile – a wonderful smile, for everyone.  Even with all she was enduring, she was always more concerned about others than she was for herself.  Noemi never stopped loving those around her, never stopped giving, and she never let her disease become the main topic.

So, please Remember Noemi as a fighter. Remember Noemi as a giver. Remember Noemi as a loving mother, and grandmother. Remember Noemi as an exceptional Child of the Philippines. Remember Noemi as a beautiful child of her God. But never forget her strength and courage as she fought a battle that few people would ever know about.
