My very last note to you,
Doc,
YOU Was the kindest person, quiet but observant, jokester, compassionate, understanding and a person who will love you unconditionally. One memory of you is always finding time to come to the front and joke around with us and making sure that we are Ok. And particular memory that I will always remember is….knowing when you would arrive in the clinic. We would be in front, and we would hear the sound of a can (diet Pepsi) open up 1st thing in the morning. As soon as the girls and I hear that we would say “. nandito siya”.
One of the oldest memories of you with me, writing notes to you, asking you a question because a patient called regarding so and so or the pharmacy and I will leave it on top of your desk and get the your response with a “ good morning Marie :).
He was someone who I looked up to as a second father figure. because of how he took care of me and the girls. He was someone who understood us individually. Regardless of what life throws at us.
Before your departure, we made a pack that we will leave when you retire because we couldn’t bare to leave you. Till you’re very last breath even when you’re no longer here you still continue to take care of us and assuring us that we will be OK. To me, you will be that person with a “golden heart.”
Thank you, doctor for loving me and the girls unconditionally. For always reminding me to love unconditionally even through pain. “ huwag isara ang iyong puso “He would say.. You were a great employer, a mentor, friend and a father to us all. Your presence truly filled the room with so much love. You have touch so many lives, including me that is why I am beyond grateful that the Lord had given me the chance in working for you and getting to know you for so many years.Your legacy will live on. May you rest in peace. Miss and love you always. Till we meet again. Doc.

Doc was a friend to all, I remember this about Doc: his response to anything was always accompanied by a grin and a chuckle. I have known Doc for decades. His office was next to the pharmacy where I worked. He would drop by daily to say hi, and if we were filling one of his patients' medications, he would carry on a conversion with them---never too busy, always showing compassion and love. That was Doc. He will be truly missed by all---his family, friends and patients. Love you Doc and until our paths meet again.

Gavino or Nonong to his friends, and Alex were our classmates at the UST College of Medicine. We shared our laughters, goals and aspirations in Manila as well as in New York as we trained to be physicians in our respective fields. Nonong chose Hawaii as his place of professional practice. We were happy to see him thrive in his endeavor. We got to meet his young family in a visit to Honolulu.
Indeed, we are saddened by the loss of his friendship. May we offer our
condolences to his family.
May Gavino rest in peace.
