Vaya con Dios , Eva Tejero Traya

The passing of Nang Eva is God's affectionate way of claiming a faithful child to His side. We grieve because we are losing her, yet we are consoled  with the truth that she is now home, at last 
Elvis Presley once said , "Do not cry because I died ; smile , because I lived.". So too , Nang Eva's life  has brought smile to us,. because she has added  one more beautiful soul into this world . I smile  as I remember her presence in our midst ; demure as a shy violet in the meadow ,and sweet and pretty as a. budding rose .In her classroom, or with her colleagues, she was always soft-spoken, gentle and congenial .
In every school events or social gatherings, she was always one of the young ladies who were chosen to welcome the honored guests with garlands and corsage  and dance with them during the social night because they were considered as the cream of the district. 
I smile when I recall  that the love of her life ,blossomed during their high school days, flourished , and finally  ended with the exchanging of  eternal vows before the altar, after seven long years of going steady

Today , as I bid adieu to Nang Eva  I also celebrate her .wonderful , blissful and fruitful  life with Tito; Costan ,  a life that has withstood  the test of time and space  longer than forever.

Farewell my Tita Nang Eva. Vaya con Dios.
