Former Senior Government Officials

It is with deep sorrow and pain that we received the news that our very dear Emy Boncodin passed away yesterday, March 15, at 1:00 PM, at the National Kidney Institute, QC. She had a cardiac arrest after she went into a semi-coma while being prepped for dialysis.

She is survived by her mother and her sister Adel. I learned from Adel that she had been growing weak in the last months. Emy never let on to us her worsening condition, however, as she continued with her meetings and work on her projects.

She was an outstanding public servant, always did her work quietly, always straightforward and truthful about the state of governance.  She went as quietly as she had served with dedication, diligence, and amazing competence.

Emy's body now lies in state at the Dela Strada Church Hall on Katipunan Avenue (between Miriam College and UP), Quezon City, until Saturday when she will be transferred to Heritage Park.  There will be one-night wake at Heritage; funeral Mass and burial will be in the early morning of Sunday.

For the next three nights, Mass will be celebrated at 7:00 PM, with memorial service to follow:

* Tonight, Tuesday, to be offered by UP-NCPAG
* Wednesday night by INCITEGov/FSGO
* Thursday night by DBM.

In sorrow and prayer for our friend and colleague,
Ging
