“Her (Mother Rosario Arroyo) life clearly mirrored the virtues of purity and innocence, deep simplicity and profound humility, ardent love for the poor, the sick and the needy,” he (Jaro Archbishop Angel Lagdameo) said.

Mother Rosario is (impossible as it may seem) the grandaunt of the First Gentleman and maybe even more unthinkable, Mikey Arroyo’s Lola. If this father and son tandem could only emulate Mother Rosario, our country would definitely be a far better place to live in.
