Dear Deacon Gerry, wife Dory, Jocelyn, Nephews and Nieces: Our Cruz family in Manila and USA are with you in prayers during this time of sorrow. We could not recall the last time Tatay Tanting was with us in Manila or in Cleveland. Wherever Tatay Tanting was at, he was the light of our party although he was quiet. Tatay Tanting cooked delicious Filipino food for the Cruz family. He made sure that everyone was served or has eaten in full. Tatay Tanting sent food to the Cruz family homes for those who were shy and not able to attend the party. Tatay Tanting also brought all kinds of goodies from his business trips and distributed them to the Cruz family. Matthew 25: 35-40, "For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was thirsty and you gave me drink; a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me. Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me," said Jesus. Tatay Tanting fed the Cruz family when he was around us and we were hungry. This is just one of Tatay Tanting’s many legacies.
