Tita Sol, RIP

We just received word that Tita Sol passed away in Los Angeles a few days ago at the age of 79, and we pray that the Good Lord receives her soul.  Early this year she had transferred to a nursing home, and after complaining of chills, was brought to a hospital where she passed away.  She's been away from the Phlippines since 1971, returning only once for a 2-month visit in 1982.  An accountant by profession, her favourite haunts were located in Las Vegas, and she was a regular player there throughout her stay in the US.  In the seventies she was fond of dogs (Snowball, her Japanese spitz in Manila, went through a 3-month quarantine period before being allowed to step on American soil), but I learned from Michaela, that in the nineties, her interest had shifted to the felines, and she had at least 20 cats coming in and out of her South Mariposa apartment.  That had earned her the moniker "Cat Lady," which was bestowed upon her by her neighbors.  With the bi-polar personality that she had, she was either laughing out loud (LOL) or throwing all the @$*%# at you!  I've been on the receiving end of that, and I used to find myself scratching my head in disbelief... Well, I must reiterate, we pray that the Good Lord receives her soul.... Rest In Peace...
