In loving memory of our dear classmate, Jared N. Awa ๐ค
It is still so hard to believe that you are gone. You were not just someone we saw in class every day, you were a genuine friend, a natural leader, and someone who brought light into our lives in your own simple but meaningful ways. Your presence made everything feel a little easier, a little brighter, and a lot more memorable.
As a friend, you were kind, understanding, and always there when someone needed you. You listened without judgment, helped without hesitation, and cared in a way that made people feel seen and valued. As a leader, you guided us with patience and strength, showing us what it means to lead not just with words, but with actions. And as a classmate, you made every moment, whether serious or full of laughter, something we will always look back on and cherish.
We will forever remember your smile, your energy, and the way you made us feel like we belonged. The memories we shared with you, inside the classroom and beyond, will stay with us for a lifetime. You may no longer be with us physically, but your kindness and your spirit will continue to live on in each of us.
You will be deeply missed by your circle of friends: Yums, Rhonamae, Che, Meh, Linds, Ceng, Josh, Ge, and Daniel. We still canโt believe it, Ja, that youโre really gone. We still canโt accept it. Everything happened so fast. It feels like just yesterday we were joking around in the classroom, laughing together, and now youโre no longer here. We will carry you with us in everything we do. Now, every time we talk about you, we will have to speak in past tense, and that is something we are still struggling to accept. You will also be deeply missed by Maโam Cha, our mama, who cared for us just like her own.
Thank you for everything, Jared. Thank you for fighting (alam naming lumaban ka talaga :โน). Thank you for the friendship, and the memories that we will carry in our hearts forever. We're all proud of you! We love you, Jared!
You will always be remembered, deeply missed, and never forgotten. Rest peacefully, Jared. ๐๏ธ
