No state funeral for Cory, says son
Former Philippine leader Aquino dies

Yahoo! Philippines
The Aquino family has opted for a private funeral for the late Corazon Aquino instead of a state funeral given to former presidents, according to Senator Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III.
Aquino said this was because his mother had chosen to be a private citizen when she finished her term in 1992, years after she was installed as the first woman president during the People Power revolution.
The democracy icon succumbed to colon cancer 3:18 am, August 1.
“We want to spend as much time as possible as a family,” said Aquino, as he thanked the public for following their advisories that visitors were not allowed at the Heritage Memorial Park.
He added that a necrology service in Malacanang might not be possible.
“I’m not anticipating an offer, I’m not asking for an offer. There’s a point in time that we would want privacy,” he said.
A public viewing, however, has been scheduled at the La Salle Greenhills gym starting 5 pm Saturday until Monday morning. The former president will then be brought to Manila Cathedral for an overnight vigil, requiem masses and necrological services. Interment will be at the Manila Memorial Park on Wednesday, the Aquino family said.
Aquino said his mother will wear her signature yellow dress and will be buried beside her husband, former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino, whose assassination sparked the first EDSA revolution.
Fighting back tears during the press conference, Aquino said his sisters have been very emotional, but the death of their mother brought them closer.
“We draw strength from the five of us,” the senator said in a press conference Saturday.
He said he last talked to his mother days ago, before doctors gave the former president morphine to ease her pain.
“We were told to say everything we want to say because after the morphine she will be sleeping all the time,” he said.
He related that instead of complaining about her illness, the former president would first think about her children’s welfare or check what was on the news.
“Nung first time ko magbantay, she would ask me kung kumain na ako. Other times nagbabasa ako ng diyaryo itatanong niya ano laman niyan. She never demonstrated pain,” he said.
Your loss is our loss. A saintly leader goes to our Lord. Pray for us Mother Cory!
Thanks President Cory..

IM VERY SORRY THAT OUR FORMER LADY PRESIDENT CORY AQUINO DIED…I FEEL SAD TO HEAR THAT AS I AM FAR FROM OUR COUNTRY BUT MY SINCERE HEART IS ALWAYS WITH HER…CONDOLENCE TO THE FAMILY AND OUR NATION..
I am so sad when i heard that our beloved former President Cory Aquino
died. She is our strength and leader why we keep on fighting for what is good to our country. But now she is on the grace of the Lord and will be together with her husband and our hero Ninoy Aquino I no longer asked question anymore to God why. I feel the lost of my beloved idol former Pres. Cory Aquino and my deeply condolences to the family. All I can say lets keep on vigilant and continue to the legacy that Pres. Cory Aquino and her husband Hero Ninoy Aquino has installed the democracy that each one of us should be aware.
malungkot po ang lahat sa pagkawala nya.. nakikiramay po ako..
Thank God that she made Cory Aquino a filipino. May she rest in peace.
May you rest in peace, the peace we badly need in our country. May God keep you in His loving arms. YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE SPECIAL PLACE IN OUR HISTORY.
My condolences to the family of former President Cory Aquino…Mabuti na po na magpahinga na cya kaysa maghirap pa cya ng matagal..At ngaun ay kasama na nya si God.At hindi na sya mahihirapan sa sakit nya.
God Bless
I would like to express my deepest concolences to the Aquino family!!! I know how hard it is for them to lose a parent and now they didn’t lose only one (Ninoy Aquino) and now their mom too who’s the 1st pinay president and the key to Philippne’s democracy passing just almost 11hrs ago.I’ve also lost my dad back in 2005 and it really hurts up to this very moment…but losing a mom is different…they’re the ones who carried us inside their wombs for nine months,they tend for us on wee hours and they’re the “ilaw ng tahanan”.We’re basically brought up and reared by our mothers because our fathers were the ones working for our future naman…But i’m happy though that my mom’s still alive and i hope she still lives longer because i want her to see me succeed in my chosen career…Again my deepest condolences…i know Pres. Cory Aquino is already at peace and happy now enjoying the company of our Dearest Creator,Our Heavenly Father…
CONDOLENCE po sa mga naiwan ni dating presidente..lagi po akong nagbabasa sa column nyo tungkol sa kanya..dahil ganyan din ang nangyri sa aking ina..kaya alm ko ang nararamdaman ng kanyang pamilya..god bless po..
“the filipino is worth dying for” tita cory’s legacy will surely lives on the hearts of the filipinos. my condolences to the Aquino family let us pray for the eternal repose of mrs Aquino’s soul

i am both sad(for a great leader passed) and happy(she is with Ninoy and God) for madame Cory Aquino. she has left a legacy that all aspiring leaders should emulate.the no state funeral is a very wise decision for the family to take.not only will they have the privacy but that they avoid exploitation of politicians who have been barking about the election instead of really doing their job.
We will show our support to tita Cory by continuing her advocacy. Our prayer for her will be in the form of continuing her struggle for fight for democracy, for justice and for peace. I know that she was praying for her country even in the last moments of her life. We love you tita Cory. Thank you for your love and sacrifice. Thank you for bearing the torch of hope for us. Paalam po Madam President Corazon Aquino. It has been an honor having you as our leader. May you rest in eternal peace….amen.
happy journey back home tita cory…
The COUNTRY WILL MOURN this great woman and great icon of democracy’s passing. The Phillippines would never have the freedom it has today without the grace of this woman. My sincerest condolence to madame cory’s family and beloved ones.

I was so lonely when i heared the news that our lady president had passed away. She is the picture of strenght, patriotism and heroic deeds. From the start during the time of Sen. Ninoy, she show her support and fight for freedom until EDSA Revolution came. Even after her term as president, she doesn’t keep quiet against corruptions and greed of power. She fights for the filipino welfare and she’s very thankful to God that she was born FILIPINO. I salute you Madam President Cory and Godbless.
Thank you for coming into our lives. Now you’re in Good Hands and in the BEST PLACE. You deserve that place more than anyone. Thank you for EVERYTHING. We love you.
i am both sad(for a great leader passed) and happy(she is with Ninoy and God) for madam Cory Aquino. she has left a legacy that all aspiring leaders should emulate.the no state funeral is a very wise decision for the family to take.not only will they have the privacy but that they avoid exploitation of politicians who have been barking about the election instead of really doing their job.moreover, terrorists might use the event to sow in terror.and she woudnt like that to happen
Rest in peace madame president in the Lord’s grace. God bless your soul.
Thank you!
My condolences to the family of former president cory aquino. We feel so sad but sa kalagayan niya mas ok nalang na kinuha siya ng poong may kapal, dahil kawawa na siya, nahihirapan na siya ng husto.

Losing someone we love will never be thay easy specially if that person who passes away is our own mother. Kaya habang buhay pa ang mga nanay natin, ibuhos na natin lahat ng pagmamahal natin sa kanila. Kc minsan, specially pag nagsipag-asawa na ang mga anak, parang nababalewala na ntin ang mga magulang natin. Kaya sa nanay q, i love you very much and i want to thank you for everything. To the Aquino family, your mom’s legacy will always be honored and remembered by the Filipino people. We may be grieving this time, but this will pass, too.

Tita Cory… thanks you so much, i’ll surely miss you but you’ll always stay here in my heart forever.

My condolence to the bereaved family of the former president Corazon C. Aquino. Her death may be a great loss to us filipinos but she changed to an Angel whom we know her name.
There is a state funeral or none, ok lang as long as there is public viewing.
For me to live is Christ and to die is gain (a verse from the Bible)
the former President had lived completing God’s purpose for her. She’s now facing her creator. Thank you
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-it is the Gift of God… not by works so that no one can boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9
-so sad but true..kahit ikaw ang pinakamabait sa mundo, kahit religious ka, without ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, u can never be with the Lord in heaven.. c Jesus lang ang daan papunta sa langit..without you acknowledging that Jesus Christ can only save you and not by good works, tsaka ka lang mkakapunta ng langit,,.. hindi ko po gawa-gawa ang mga bagay na sinasabi ko..it’s from the Word of God..
.Sincerest Condolence to to the family of former President Cory Aquino. She is now in heaven with our Creator. Your memories will always linger in our heart. You taught us how to fight for our democracy. Let the spirit of EDSA remain in our mind forever. I love you, my dear president.
It feels sad when we lost someone so dear to us…but lets just be comforted by thinking that all the pain is gone and she is now in peace with God…R.I.P Madame Cory Aquino! condolences to Aquino Family.
My sincerest condolences to the bereaved family of Tita Cory. My heart bleeds for her passing. I feel for the family of Tita Cory because my mother, Purificacion Vasquez Velas also died of colon cancer. She died at 79, on April 28, 2004, 3 years after it was diagnosed. When Tita Cory was losing appetite, I remembered my mother during her last days. And I prayed hard when Tita Cory was brought to the hospital.
I thank God for having given us Tita Cory even for a short period of time. She is now happy with the Lord.
God bless Tita Cory’s Family and the Philippines.
cory aquino…
you are really the model of a true filipina..
you are now in the hands of our Creator..

I d like to extend my deepest condolences to the aquino family.How ever I believed that its a wrong move for them not to put president Cory Aquino who has champion the cause of democracy in our country.President Cory Aquino is the former Chief Commanding Officer of the Republic of the Philippines and as such it is only but imperative that we gave her the full honors deserving an honorary president.President Aquino Belongs to the filipino people it is only right the she be buried at libingan ng mga bayani. si erap ba pag namatay ililibing nio sa libingan ng mga bayani?
Natatandaan ko noong bata pa ako si Ginang Cory Aquino na ang nakamulatan kung Pangulo ng bansa…..Nakakalungkot naman ang laman ng balita…..Gusto ko lang ipahayag ang aking nararamdaman na sa iyong paglisan aming mahal na Pangulong Cory Aquino,lubos kaming nagpapasalamat sa demokrasyang ipinagkaloob nyo sa sambayanang pilipino at patuloy nawang mangibabaw ang diwa ng EDSA sa bawat isa….Mananatili kayo sa aming puso’t isipan….Salamat Po…..
.Sincerest Condolence to the family of former President Cory Aquino. She is now in heaven with our Creator. Your memories will always linger in our heart. You taught us how to fight for our democracy. Let the spirit of EDSA remain in our mind forever. I love you, my dear president.

No amount of words could suffice the pain that any family is experiencing when losing a loved one specially our mother. But I do believe Pres. Cory Aquino was given to every Filipino as an epitome of strength, faith and reconciliation. Your mother make us see how to be strong without anger in her face. When I heard about the news, I uttered this words “She’s really loved by Mama Mary because she died on a 1st Saturday of the month is always in recognition of Mama Mary”. With this, I hope I have consoled the hurt the family is experiencing right. (even though I’m just an ordinary worker)
Pwede po bang magtanong?Nagpa-opera po ba si Madam Cory Aquino noong ma-diagnose ang colon cancer?
president Cory Aquino is a great ICON in democracy.she is a woman , mother, and a leader of good example. I will always remember her . I know she is now at the bossom of our creator.
My heartfelt condolences to the Aquino family. We always remember You Madame President. May the Spirit of EDSA will continue to be remembered and you’re always be in our hearts forever.
From Davao del Norte

I once met her at the birthday of her brother Mr. Peping Cojuangco and she humbly shake our hands and told us if we ate already. At that time i was a lightman of a private video and photo coverage company. I am shocked to know that she passed away knowing that i couldn’t sleep last night for un-known reason. All that we’d like to say in behalf of my family and friends in the Philippines is, thank you very much President Cory Aquino, for reaching out your hands to your Filipino People and for being a good mother and leader who served and gave her best for all of us. Thank You Very Much. Mabuhay Ka Po. Mahal Naming Pangulo

The whole philippines has mourn to the death of the former president Cory Aquino. Even i has mourn. It hurts to lose someone. Sorry to hear about her death. I think its God’s will than to suffer from her sickness (colon cancer) forever. Let’s face the fact that we will all return to our creator.
Sad to hear the news this morning.. but grateful na rin po kasi alam nating di na siya maghihirap and masaya na siya sa kinalalagyan niya ngayon..
My condolence to the Aquino Family..
condolence from the aquino family……..
from the people here in batangas
It’s a big loss for the country. Former President brought us freedom through people power. she show her determination to change by giving us the faith in God.She is strong enough to face all the struggles to stand as a first woman President in the country. The simplest and honesty makes the filipino people proud of her. Sadly. to know she passed away. Mrs. President you’re always in our heart. I know God always be with you and Hope you and your Husband Ninoy will be together. We pray the spirit of yours will at peace and be blessed forever. Condolence to the family of Former President Aquino.
Her time with the Lord has come… it is better to be with the Lord than to be live in this world that full of sins… We know that all she thinks is for the Philippines to become a growing country but some politician always thinks for their pockets. All I can say now is the Lord is waiting mam cory for you to be sat on his side.
You have made so much history within our hearts Mrs. Cory. To be honest, i feel aweful with the news that you passed away. Without you, there would be no democracy. So, I salute to you. You are a great woman of faith! Please be with us always.
The loss of former Pres. Aquino is the loss of our democracy also.Because I doubt that there will be courageous Filipinos today that will fight for our democracy.
we love cory..we miz you cory!!!im proud of you..you are the best you are extra ordinary women…we mizz u and thank you to all the memory..
sad to know about the death of our former president who initiated the edsa revolution but we don’t own our life and it is GOD’S WILL. and very sad to know also that noynoy don’t want a STATE FUNERAL for the former lady president. Why? is it because he is not with the Arroyo Admininstration? He declined the State Funeral for his mother wherein that should be given to any president of the country or any high official who dies. Condolence to the Aquino family.
sad to hear our former first lady died,condolence to the family.
all filipinos are proud of you we will missed you forever,may you rest in peace!
Salamat, Cory…
Filipinos will never forget her contribution to the nation. Isa siyang bayani. Condolence to her family at sa sambayanang Pilipino.
the lost of a loveone is always the saddest part of life, to the aquino family may the strugle and triumph of president cory comfort you in your time of grief,. madame president may you continue praying for us as you are now nearer to our creator. i like the speech before the u.s congress way back then…it was inspiring, i hope i can have a copy of that. thanks you
She did not die in vain. Its up to the young people of our country to stand up for what she belives in and never let the flame of democracy die. She will always be remembered by many.
sayang talaga.. i really had high hopes for her to survive.. tsk..
but surely, makakasama na niya si Ninoy .. 
I am not really a pro-Cory during her time but President Aquino deserves respect. Her presidency is probably the most challenging because of the threats of the ultra-rightists soldiers and the communist rebels, the long dark hours of no electricity, the July 16 1990 earthquake, the June 1991 Mount Pinatubo eruption, the US bases issue, and the upsurge of corrupt government officials. Despite these challenges, she was able to steer the Philippines to rise from the mud.
May God Bless You, Madame President. Rest peacefully.
CONDOLENCE to the Aquino Family..May CORY AQUINO’s legacy will always in be in the hearts and minds of every FILIPINOS.. DEMOCRACY = CORY! remember that guys..
Farewell, Madam President CORAZON C. AQUINO…you are such a big loss to the Filipino people and to your family.
You will always be in our hearts and we will never forget the legacy that you have instituted for this nation…for this generation…and for the generations to come.
We are proud of our “FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT”…we are proud of YOU!
You are truly a “history”…because everything that is first is history!
May the Lord pour out His comfort to your family in this moment of sorrow.
We will surely miss you!
condolence to family aquino..and thanks for our Formerly President Cory Aquino.
Im an OFW, a fiend inform me straight away that tita cory, passed away, it make me sad, as during her regime thats the first time that lots of youngsters & that includes me who been able to take summer job through the help of DOLE, it does make me feel bad that i cant stop crying, somehow i think its better 4 her to go so she wouldnt feel any more pain. My condolences to the aquino family.
The death of the former president is really saddening. Condolence to the Aquino family. Let’s pray for her soul and let’s keep her spirit alive..the EDSA spirit alive.
R.I.P PRES. CORY AQUINO
It saddens us that a great person would pass away so soon, bakit hindi na lang un mga masasamang tao mauna.
FOR TO DIE WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS TO GAIN… WHICH IS ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN…
