Hi Rey.. Thank you very much for the support for Girlie Dioquino. Your donation of $ 500.00 helped a lot to realize Girlie’s repatriation. I will follow-up Bala Shan (TNO Finance Manager) for the acknowledgement.
About Girlie’s repatriation, her body was sent to the Philippines in May 27, 2012. We were able to raise around $ 12,000 which is enough to cover the Repatriation Fee to Balmoral Funeral Service including the plane fare for Girlie. An excess amount was sent to her family in Ternate, Cavite Philippines. According to her family, Girlie was laid to her final resting place last Sunday (June 3).
Again.. thank you so much for your group’s generous donation for Girlie. God Bless..
