My Nan was the most kind, caring, and humorous person I have met. She would welcome anyone with open arms and feed everyone with a smile. Being able to grow up in New Zealand with her is something I am forever grateful for, as she taught me what it is to be a young woman. Although she is gone, she will never be forgotten as she was loved by everyone. I love you so much Nan, and I will miss you so much.

To My Lola Nita we of the Balili Family solemnly grieve your passing and although you are no longer with us I faithfully know that you enjoyed your time with me and our family during your fleeting escapade with us in this profound and blessed life cycle, although times will seem darker now that your smile is no longer shining upon us, know that you always will live on in our hearts and memories. We love you forevermore and forget you nevermore. My you Rest in Peace in the loving embrace of our Creator. From your Eldest Grandson Gerard P. Balili

Being able to be on Lola's side when she visits us here in the Philippines, is a core memory of her that I will forever cherish. The late night talks before bed, her heavenly cooking alongside with the public market escapade, and most especially her care for all us - her grandchildren; which I can attest that a Lola's love is great. Her passing is surely a loss to our family, yet I will be forever grateful for the time that God allowed us to both spent and for the memories that we were able to create. La, me and Tine, will surely miss you. Know that you may be out of our sights, but you will never be forgotten. We are happy for you that you are now in a better place, free from all pain and suffering. May God and all the angel and saints in heaven, welcome you there in paradise. Please watch over us - your family, from above and guide us all. Rest in peace la.

Nan, you were a huge ray of light, love and strength in my life. Your support and encouragement helped shape who I am today, and I am who I am simply because of you and the impact you had on me. You had a heart full of compassion and empathy, and you always put others before yourself. Your warm smile and gentle touch could brighten even my darkest of days. You had an infectious laugh that could fill a room, and you had the biggest sense of humour which I loved. I am so grateful Olive got to meet you and grow up knowing she had an amazing Lola. I know you will be visiting her from time to time. She always asks about you. I know you will watch over her as her guardian angel; and mine. My only wish is that she grows up to have the same traits and values that you do. You faced life's challenges with grace and resilience, never giving up on your children, and always striving to do your best with all the sacrifices you made. Your faith and commitment to your family inspires me daily, and I will always strive to be just like you nan. I will miss you with every fibre of my being, everyday, for the rest of my life…but I take comfort in knowing that you are now at peace and reunited with your two sons, your best friend Gloria, and your loved ones who have passed. I will forever cherish the memories we had, the meals we made, the late nights we spent watching TV, and the secrets and jokes we shared. You were truly my best friend, and I will miss you everyday, for the rest of my life. Rest in peace nan. I’ll be seeing you

My nana was a beautiful lady inside and out. She always welcomed us in her home and ensured that our bellies were full. She would treat us with kindness and love. Spending time with Nana was so special and I will always treasure our memories we made together. I will forever miss her smiles, hugs and laughter. She was one a kind and she meant so much to me. I’m glad that Nana is no longer suffering and that she passed on with family around her. I want to thank you Nana for everything you’ve done for me. I’m very greatful that you were in my life. I love you so much Nana and will forever miss you with all my heart. I know you are watching over me and your spirit will always be guiding me.
