I met Mama when Ivy and I were still dating. Usually people are worried about meeting their significant other’s parents. I was nervous, but for no reason. Mama was welcoming when I met her and from then on she was always the same; kind, gentle, welcoming and caring. Before I married Ivy I would always hear people talking about how mean and awful a mother in law could be. This was never the case, she was always so wonderful to be around. Thank you Mama for welcoming me into your family and always being so kind to me. I will take care of Ivy everyday. I will miss our breakfast chats. We miss and love you. Thank you Mama.

With deepest sympathy,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Kuya Bonnie and all.
Rest in peace Ate Addie. We will always remember your warm thoughtfulness. Thank you for being so kind.
With love,
From Cerrafon Family

Rick & I became a member of the Domantay family in 1991 when I worked for AD Domantay & Associates. We have been in close contact ever since. Addie did our taxes for several years. It saddened us with her passing but we will always remember her friendly presence, her beautiful smile and her calm voice. She fulfilled well her vocation in life…the superwoman and all. God is pleased to welcome her now in His Presence. Rest in peace with God, Addie.

My aunt was a woman who had smiles to brighten your days, who always made you feel good with her warm words of praise. And what’s more she knew what to do to make wishes come true. She was my aunt.
My aunt was someone who always had good stories to tell, but just as importantly, she knew how to be a good listener as well. She was patient and kind. She was no ordinary person.
And I am proud to tell the world that ADELAIDA DOMANTAY, was my aunt!!
We will miss you, Auntie! May you Rest In Peace!

Mrs Adelaida Domantay,
It’s hard to believe you’ve gone from this earth but I’m happy that you’re resting peacefully with the Lord. May Almighty God accept your soul in perfect peace.
My condolences to the entire Domantay family.

It broke my heart , my tears fell knowing you have passed away .It is very sad to accept that you are gone. We lost a compassionate and beloved friend to everyone . We will be remembering the days and times that you were part of all the laughters , jokes. fun and sharing at the party ! Happy memories of you will always remain in our hearts and thoughts. May the Lord grant you eternal rest !

We’re so sorry for the loss of your dear love one. Please know that whatever we face we’re never alone, for God takes our sorrows and makes them His own. You are all in our Prayers!

Addie, we don’t have much to say except you will always have a special place in our hearts. I still have that native bag you gave me in 1987, also the year you asked me to be godmother to your twin daughters. I brought that bag with me when you and bony treated us like king and queen at Agua Caliente, on your kuya Tito’s bday, complete, hotel accommodation and concert/show. You remember the bag and jokingly said “is that where you’ll put all your winnings tonite? I said this is for kuya Tito’s snacks, and indeed I have $749.00 in my machine and you said, “kunin nio na” which i did🤑. May you Rest In Peace, Addie. I will miss our conversation in iMessage. And to our brother Bonnie and family, may we say, if there is emailing and imessaging in heaven, God will send you this message “your loss is my gain ;for today, Addie is among my angels in heaven whose task is writing your names on my golden stairs”. Bonnie and family, “sorrow is a fruit. God does not make it grow on limbs too weak to bear it and like a bird singing in the rain, let grateful memories survive in this time of sorrow.

So sad to hear Addie is gone on earth n has joined with the Lord in heaven. May your soul rest in peace.

Adelaida is the most loyal friend I ever had. We have met the first day of school in grade one during the flag ceremony. We bonded so strongly from the very start, talked about not going to the first class under Miss Solis. We both made the decision to attend Mrs. Parlan’s class because according to her “she looked like a kind lady,” so we did even if Miss Solis asked us to transfer to hers. We giggled a lot and since then she was my partner in crime. At the home economics cooking class, she cooked the food we were assigned and just added my name to the list, she did my sewing projects and in high school she did the same, did the embroidery and crochet projects. She knew that I am not good at these but she wanted me to get a passing grade. She told me to try joining the ” beauty pageant” in junior high which in return I pushed her in senior and had the best time getting ready togefher. We had our hair and make up done in Dagupan, did fittings of our gowns and shoes. We visited each other in Manila when we went to university. We heard each other’s heartaches, the saddest part was losing my father and she was around even it was Christmas off. It was my turn to lend my shoulder when her mother died. Her old self came back and suddenly she told me she wants to get married. I was very happy for her. She was determined to have a family of her own. Even when I moved to Canada, she remained a very close friend a confidante and a big sister. ( she taught me how to use the”kotex”). One time I got stranded at her house during a big storm and she sent her dad to let my parents know, come to think of it, we were in grade three. She supplied me with sacks of squash when I had a pet pig. She was the ninang of my doll. Susie.
Her unending words of wisdom came pouring in when she learned my dreams and plans for the golden reunion did not pull through. She said ” let them be, if that’s what would make them happy. I know who you are.” She pushed me in whatever undertaking I did. Her words ” you can do it” was reassuring.
She was calm, collected, and beautiful. She deserved the love of a big family. I have a lot of memories to remember you, my beloved friend Addie.
I may have not told her very often but I believe she is beside me as I write boldly ” I LOVE YOU ADDIE. MAY ETERNAL REST BE GRANTED UNTO YOU. MAY OUR DEAR LORD EMBRACE YOU. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.”

Our condolences to the bereaved family of mareng Addie. Na-shock ako kasi kakachating namin last April 5th. May you rest in peace, my kumare, Addie! Surely we will miss your company, my dear kumare!

Our condolences to the family of Addie. Such sad news indeed. May her soul rest in peace.

Very sad indeed to hear this news. May her soul rest in peace. Prayers will be offered for her and her family.

Our deepest condolences to Bonnie and family!
May Addie rest in peace with our Lord.

Sad to know. My sympathies to the family of Addie and prayers for the eternal repose of her soul.

Ang sadly yumao na. Alive na alive, at biglang mabalitaan no wala na siya. Malaya na siya at kapiling na no ya ang Panginoon Dios!

Condolence sa family no Addie. Alam ko na masaya ka na sa piling ng Panginoon ngayon.

My deepest sympathy to the bereaved family of the late Addie M. Domantay. Addie, my dearest amiga, is one with the purest heart who I will miss very much. May she enjoy eternal rest in the arms of our Lord, amen.

Addie was beautiful, inside and out!

Condolence to the family. May eternal rest be granted to the soul of Adelaida M. Domantay. May she rest in peace.

Being classmates and friends in high school, I shared the joys of my youth with Addie. Even when we were already in Manila, I used to visit her in her Dorm at Gastambide St., back of University of the East where she was enrolled. I don’t know if the family knows that Addie can play the guitar. On summer vacations when we go home, we used to sit at the railroad tracks near their house. And together with another friend, Celia, we would sing in all abandon knowing that no one can hear but the vast fields surrounding us. Addie can play almost all songs of the Cascades, very popular at the time. Once in a while we would go to Dagupan City to eat Burger at JG’s, already a treat during our time. These are some of the simple things we did that brought immense happiness to our young life. Goodbye, Addie… Rest well in your permanent home prepared by the Lord…

Thank you ate Addie for being part of our lives. You are always the guiding light for your family, loving kuya Bonnie, my nieces and nephews unconditionally. We never realized that you were sick with cancer. We wished that we have talk and spend more time with you. Seeing you in our family gatherings, you always showed that nothing was wrong and have that delightful cheer in you. You are always loving, kind, and generous to all of us. Our life will never be the same without you. We will miss you and will remember you always and the happy memories we had. We love you! Rest in peace now.

Addie was incredibly supportive of me when I was a struggling artist in Dagupan, Pangasinan. She was very generous, friendly, palaging naka-smile. Every day, bago ako umuwi sa bahay namin, dadaan muna ako sa puwesta nila sa palengke at kami ay magchikahan. She never changed. She was a big help to me then. I do remember when she was crowned as Miss Senior Class 68, she was exceptionally beautiful. Also, when she got married, my two good friends, make-up artists, sila ang nag-ayos sa kanila. I was honored to be one of the wedding sponsors. Si Addie ang nag-send sa aking Facebook ng photo pero di ko na mahanap. It’s been a long, long time. Many years ago, umuwi ako sa Malasiqui. Tamang tama na nasa Malasiqui din siya. Tagal naming nagchikahan, reminiscing our high school days. She promised to visit me sa Club Mwah. But his eldest son ang dumating at sinabi na si Addie cannot come. Sayang, I wanted to show her na dahil sa pagsuporta niya at pag-encourage niya, nagawa ko ang Club Mwah show. Lagi rin kaming nagchat sa Facebook. Last chat namin, this coming December, uuwi silang lahat. Nabigla ako nang natanggap ko na wala na siya. I’m losing an exceptionally good friend, a treasured, kindhearted, Good Samaritan classmate. Rest in Peace. I’ll miss you, Addie.

Condolence to the family. Mare and Batchmate, may you rest in peace. Your untimely loss was unexpected. We surely will miss you, your great kindness, thoughtfulness, and caring for your family and your classmates.
May you find happiness with the Lord. Watch over your family and every one of us.
We love you. From MCS Batch 68

When I met Tita Addie, the one thing that struck me the most was her warm smile. The smile that radiated her kindness and loving nature…

Thank you, Tita Addie for loving my sister like your own.

Thank you for the opportunity of knowing you, Tita. Rest now and be happy with the angels in heaven!

Dear Mama,
I miss you so much already! I miss every time you tell me how pretty I am when I am wearing a dress. Thank you Mama for everything. Thank you for taking care of me. You’re the best! Thank you for the love.
You will always be in my heart… ❤️
I love you so much! ❤️❤️

Love,
Maxine 👧🏻

Dear Mama,
I feel so sad to even write this message that’s why it took me a while to write… thank you for letting me use your phone every time I ask for it. Thank you for taking me to target and buying me toys and for all the gifts that you have given me. Thank you for the love Mama! I will always cherish all the memories I have with you.
I dedicate this song for you..
“ You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You’ll never know
Dear how much
I LOVE YOU
PLEASE DON’T TAKE
MY SUNSHINE AWAY!”

Love,
Lucas

Auntie Addie, We will miss you tremendously. You always have the biggest and most welcoming smile. May you smile down on us from the Heavens. May you Rest In Peace Auntie.

Love,
Rosalynn, Ruben, RJ, Roman, and Remi

Thank you Ate Addie for all the help that you’ve given us and guidance that you extended to us especially the care of our family. Your kindness and good heart will never be forgotten and will stay forever in our hearts. May you Rest In Peace with Nanay, Tatay, your parents, your sisters and our brothers. Please pray for us and we pray for you too.

Addie and I were close since elementary days but we lost touch when I migrated to USA. When I moved back to Malasiqui to work as Manager of the bank in Dagupan, everyday after office hour, I visited her in her store. We laughed together and eat our favorite “banana que” until it’s time to close the store. We never discuss any “political issues, nor her problems but just recall old time high school stuffs that gave us big laughs and smiles always. We recalled our college days where we hanged out in her dormitory and laughed together along with our former high school classmates. When she got married, we had a party, that ended just few hours before the ceremony in the church. She got me as “ninang” of her first born son…which I regret did not have chance to communicate due to work related reasons and occupied activities in churches I worked.
It’s so sad to know her untimely demise but rest assured that she will be in the hands of the Lord now . She will be at peace and enjoying eternal life with the angels in heaven!
Thanks Addie for those memories… just too sad that for some reasons, we both failed to rekindle our friendship….we both respected “SILENCE” in our hearts. Nini

A heartwarming message from a daughter to a mother who is loved by her family so much. I spent a day with Addie and Bonnie when I was in California in 2006. After dining out, she took me to her house where 9 cars were parked side by side, one for each member of the family. Unfortunately, we forgot to take photos. Never knew it was to be the last time I would see her…I will always treasure those memories…
From Josie Torio Melo

I remembered Adelaida Macasieb as our candidate of our section (Pearl), then she won as Miss 4th year popularity (money) contest. Since Addie has garnered the highest votes in the competition over 1st, 2nd and 3rd years, she was crowned Miss AVC of 1968. We knew that Addie’s Parents were honorable businessmen, generous and God fearing, well to do family. Addie, we missed your friendly attitude, easy to get along with, we, your classmates believed to your genuine heart. We have treasured sweet memories with you, Addie! Now you are gone, our high school days remained with us. Our prayers for your eternal repose. Farewell forever!

Mare Addie .So saddened about your loss. I can say that we are not so closed that we were only classmates from 5th to 6 th grade thT we became close. You are friendly thoughtful and lovable. We only separated when you enrolled at Agno Valley College me at Malasiqui Catholis School Somehow we lost the closeness and togetherness with our college life . Our closeness and friendship came back. And so happy when Our high school classmate Bonnie became your husband and was the godmother of your first born child Edelyn. Since then we see each other during your short balikbayan stay. I can still remember diring your last balikbayan that you wanted our mini reunion to be held in your house. Each one of us batchmates were given a gift pack. You are that loving thoughtful caring to all of us. Mare Addie we love you and will always pray for you. Watch over us and esp to your family and love ones. Rest in peaceand be happy wth the Lord Confolence yo yhe family. .A lovenotes from your Mare Elisa Ferrer. idica MCS batch 68

Addie, we’re classmate but with memory gap, I can’t remember what year. After our HS graduation, we went to where we enrolled our college life. I enrolled in Mla. I’m too busy cause I’m a working student. After my college days, I apply at PRC to take a board exam. I’ve learned that my name was not Esther but “LEA”. Sunce then un na ang gamit ko up to now. Nawala ako sa circulation. Until last 2016 nalaman nila ung new name ko, I was invited to attend the reunion. Ndi nman nakaattend c Addie. Last year andito ciya, but to their many appt. ndi kami nagkita. Sabe niya next timena lang daw. I am very sad to know thatAddie passed away na. I’ll always pray for yiu my friend. Perpetual light shine always upon you. Rest in peace.

Esther “Lea” Navarro Boquiren

Addie and I became closer when her family migrated to the US. We talked about the struggles in adjusting to life in the United States, bringing up kids, pursuing careers, and, most importantly, reconnecting with classmates here. With her, friendship is an open book. She was one of my best friends on whom I could trust my life without judging and tattle-telling behind my back. I felt real friendship, especially loyalty and kindness. She was a genuine friend and a remarkable human being.

I saw her firm determination with The Good Samaritans. She repeatedly told me no matter how few there were of us, not to give up. She kept reassuring me that we will be alright. Positive and funny, she was there whenever I needed support. Talking with her uplifted my spirit and made me more determined and focused.

Addie, we will miss you. I assure you that the hard work, commitment, camaraderie, and the projects that The Good Samaritans started will continue as long as we can. Thank you for your friendship, especially your loyalty and all the things you have done for The Good Samaritans and me. We will treasure our memories of you, and never will we forget you nor your good deeds. Have a peaceful journey. We will see you in the next life. I will sorely miss you, Addie!

Dear Addie, thank you for being a true, loyal, sincere and ever loving friend. We instantly bonded at the flag on the first day of grade one. The friendship flourished amazingly, nurtured by your sisterly instinct. You pushed me with your endless encouragement. You believed in me that I was scared to not to be able to deliver your expectations of me. We lived thru heartaches, pains and joys of life together. You remain in my heart and my memories of you are treasured forever. Rest in peace until me meet again, dear Addie.

Even though we didnt have many conversations, whenever I was around Addie, she was always surrounded by her family, be it at the dining room table or at a banquet hall. I’ve always seen the closeness among the siblings and the love towards their parents. You have left a great example of family that will live on.
Hilma & Paul McTaggart

Thank you Ate Addie for being my sister and also a friend. We will cherish all the good memories that we had together going out of town, like partners in crime. We never run out of topics to talk about like unending na kuwentuhan. Now I have to miss those. Thank God we have good talks and laughs on the afternoon before you got rushed to the hospital. We love you and we will miss dearly. May the guiding light will shine upon you and may Rest In Peace.

I know from the time Mama left us in 1990, you take her place to let us feel that we are not alone and that a mother’s love will always be there for you to share. When you migrate in the US you never forget to tell us na “ Andito lng ako, Ibinilin kayo ni Mama mo sa akin” and as what we know mas hinigitan mo pa po un at extended hanggang sa aming mga anak. We are included in your plans😢
You always wanted me and Grace to be with you in US but choices did not give us chance to pursue. We will treasure all the guidance and advise you taught us. The support love and unending care to me and my kids will always be in our hearts..😭😭
It is hurtful to think that you are now gone😭😭😭. The smile you showed us is a selfless gesture for your love to us. Sorry if during those times of suffering we are not beside you😢😢
Now that your in the good hands of our ALMIGHTY FATHER may the light shine upon your soul and Rest in Peace🙏🏻🙏🏻
You are now with lolo Andring, lola Marina, auntie Linda and Mama in the life of eternity.
We love you so much, thank you for everything. Till we meet again😭😭😭🙏🏻

You always wanted me to go there…I now know why, you like to take care of me and ate Venus. But destiny didn’t permit me in going there, thus it doesn’t stop you from caring and helping me, in every decision I make in life you were there guiding me, supporting and advising whats good to do, I am sorry for the times I failed you and for my stubbornness.
I will remember you with your loving memories. I know in my heart you are in a better place now but surely I will miss your hi and how are you, your voice, our chat and your presence in our life. Don’t worry about us Auntie. This is what God wants. It’s so painful Auntie, but we need to let go and let God’s will be done but again surely we will not forget you 😭😭😭.
Thank you Auntie for the LOVE and CARE that you have given my whole family, i always say that my kids are so blessed and lucky having a thoughtful Lola in you.
Till we meet again Auntie Addie, I will look forward in seeing you again in the land of no days and time. It is consoling to know that you’re not in pain anymore. I know my Mama, Auntie Linda, Lolo Andring, Lola Marina and all of our departed love ones will welcome you in heaven. Rest in peace my dearest Auntie Addie. We will cherish your love for us forever. I love you very very much.

Sincerely,
Grace and Rev delos Reyes

Dear lola Addie,

The time mama told me that you’re gone, It makes me feel sad. Because the lola that never forget us sending loves, sending gifts out here in the philippines is gone.

Thank you for always sending us chocolates, gifts, shoes and everything that you gave us. Me and my sibling and my parents will never forget you always. You are along with lola Felipa and our creator. Always guide us. You can rest now in piece.

I will not also forget about you, Lola Addie! May you find rest with our creator.

Steven

Dear Mama,
Everytime I went to Azuza I would be greeted by your warm smile, and everytime it made me so happy. Your cheery personality could brighten anybody’s day. When I said “I love you!” she would say “I love you more.” And I would say “That’s not possible!” Now, it seems more true than ever. I will miss you so much Mama, but I know you will be by my side. Through the dark hours and through the sunny days. You were there for me since I was a baby. It made me sad when you were in pain, but now you aren’t anymore. There are so many memories I have with you, some I don’t even remember! But I know that whenever I was with you I was happy and when I was sad you would use your love on me, and I wouldn’t be sad anymore. All the small conversations we had, I will miss. I wish we had more of those Mama. We will stay strong for you Mama, as you did for us. I love you Mama, more than you know, more than you can see. Thank you for everything Mama, all the gifts you’ve given me, the happiness you shared. Thank you Mama.

Mama, you were brave, strong and very loving. I will miss you everyday and will always love you.
