TRIBUTE AND FAREWELL TO OUR BELOVED PILOM


Our beloved Pilom is leaving us to the land of opportunity of United States. Congratulations to you Pilom on your new career and new life.

In 1999 Pilom was only 26 years old when I got to know her. There was the plan to build a new church but we had no idea how to raise the money. And one evening we were just chatting and Pilom and Pasquana came up with a bright idea. . .Valentine's Program. And that is how the fundraising of the new church all began. Ever since the Valentine's Program in 1999, Pilom was always there teaching the young kids dances, decorating the stage, serving food, and everything that needs to be done. She was always there.

Pilom is very active and involved in the church activities from choir, leading the very young kids caroling in the wee hours of five in the morning on Christmas Day.

Pilom is known to everyone as the friend to the very young and to the very old. Always happy and young kids like to hang out with her because of her friendly and easy going personality.

Pilom is the one to take the young kids in the pick up trucks and go in the jungle to get the ferns to decorate our church. Pilom stays up till morning decorating our church for Easter and Christmas.

Pilom is known for making our church beautiful on big Holy Days of Easter and Christmas with her touch of decoration.

St. Joseph Church thank you and we will all miss you. May our Lord bless you and grant you a successful new life in San Fransisco, USA.
