Dida,

Thank you for always being there for me. Your steady support and constant encouragement shaped so much of who I am today. You taught me the value of hard work and integrity.

Whenever I needed help or guidance, you never hesitated — you were simply there, without question. We would always laugh and smile whenever I would come over for lamb on Sunday since we were little kids.. A routine gathering that I will never forget and look to carry on in your memory.

I will always carry your lessons with me and do my best to make you proud. I’m so grateful for every moment we shared and for the example you set. You will always be a part of me.

You’re in a better place now and we will one day be reunited. Until then - we will never forget you. Rest in peace.
