Obituary for Perlita Ligaya Vidad Raquel What a beautiful summer! Everything shimmering and golden and all that incredible bright light. Mom and Daddy have spent the last 25 years here, and even though they’ve lived in the city, this is their dream home.
Last week Daddy promised Mom to get her out of the hospital and come home to Wahiawa. And they made it! My mother was a beautiful and intelligent lady and spent her last days here being surrounded by her children and grand-children.
She died on early Sunday morning in the loving embrace of her youngest son. Mom was a queen and a fighter. Her strength and love for her family and the beauty in the world have touched many people with the incredible joy she felt for life.
Long live the beauty that comes down and through and onto all of us.
