FORMER Bacolod City Council secretary lawyer Nilo Alejandrino was laid to rest Wednesday at the Bacolod Memorial Park in Barangay Alijis, Bacolod City, after he succumbed to an illness around 5 p.m. last April 14.
His wife Melba and daughters Aloy, April, Pearl and Lianne, relatives, friends and fellow government workers paid their last respects to the former public servant who had worked for the City Government of Bacolod for 24 years. Former Bacolod City lone district Representative Monico Puentevella; Councilors Archie Baribar, Sonya Verdelfor, Elcid Familiaran; former Councilor Rolando Villamor; lawyers Edgardo Tuclaod and Lorenzo Alminaza; and many of those who were close to him sympathized with the family. His daughter Aloy delivered a eulogy for her father. She said, "As a father, Atty. Alejandrino was the best father. He might not give us the material things that we want but you would always feel the love and care that he has for you. My dad was a quiet person. He does not really say much. However, I always felt loved and cared for every day… every single time." She added that their dad was a protector, as every time their mom would punish them for doing wrong, her dad would be there to save them. Most of Alejandrino siblings are living abroad. The late Alejandrino’s mother, Mamang Choleng Tetongco, 95 and lives abroad, sent her message to her son: "I will pray that you will find peace with the Lord. Don't worry about your children; they will be taken cared of by our family. Rest in peace and I will always love you my dear Nilo." Tata Totengco-Enad, his sister, also bade goodbye to her beloved brother Nilo whom they dearly called "Toto". Carla N. Canet Sun Star Bacolod
