“Florsefina Licup Maipid” will remain in our hearts forever. We will not forget her and we love her so much!
Mommy Pining was my remarkable mother-in-law. When I first met her she greeted me with a warm, gentle smile. She had this unique way of calling out to her children. “Fey-o-Fey” or “Rosie Rose,” she would say. After a few months of knowing her, Mommy unexpectedly called me “Doy-o-Doy.” Everyone chuckled, as did I. But to me, it was also a welcome sign into the Maipid family. It felt like Mommy was saying, “I think you’re alright, so you can feel at ease now.” Looking back it was silly to even be nervous around her, as she showed me nothing but kindness and acceptance.
There was a time when Mommy and I would have coffee together in the afternoon before everyone else was back home from work. We would sit at the dinner table and sip coffee, mostly in silence. Gone were the awkwardness and nervousness that I felt in younger days. I was perfectly comfortable just spending quiet time with my mother-in-law. Every now and then Mommy would break the silence, usually by expressing her concerns about her children. She was particularly distressed about Rose, who had become an avid scuba diver. One time she said, “If she wanted to watch fish, why couldn’t she just have gotten an aquarium?” She had a way of being funny like that without trying. I realized that my mother-in-law was not living the peaceful, uneventful, leisurely life that I thought she was. Her concerns for her children must have weighed on her.
So that’s how I remember my mother-in-law: gentle, kind, with love for her family that was beyond measure. In her own unassuming way she enriched the lives of everyone around her, mine included. Thank you, Mommy Pining.
