Edited my Uncle's Eulogy

My boyfriend and I were on an Anniversary trip when I received an SMS from my stepmom saying that my father's youngest brother had died due to a massive heart attack at work.

We immediately went to my uncle's wake in Navotas.

My relatives on my father's side maintain a distant relationship. I am closer to my relatives on my mother's side.
This was the first time that I met one of my uncles, some of my cousins and some of my grandma's relatives.

I do not know much about the uncle that died. I just know that he's the youngest, he lives in Navotas and he's the favorite child of my grandma.

I wasn't able to attend the eulogy during the last wake because I was at work and that my father left for Malaysia that day so no one will be able to drop me off.

When I edited the video, I was able to learn more about my uncle, Manuelito Sagaya Melencio. People call him Luteng. Like all my uncles on my father's side, he was also an activist.
