Memories of Mom: Never Forget; Never Give Up.

"My mother just passed away. We're from a large family, so our message to everybody is never forget her and never give up."
"What's the best memory that you have of your mom?"
"Instilling our core family values in us. My father was Filipino, my mother's Irish. My father died when we were young, so she kept his heritage going, from the youngest ones, the ones and twos, to the thirty-, forty-, fifty-year-olds. Kept us all together through that time."
