MILDRED B DAYAP
Magnanimous in spirit, you give without measure, shaping minds with grace.
In quiet strength, your presence steadies the English Department’s scholarly pulse.
Language itself seems kinder when spoken through your thoughtful guidance.
Dedication marks your days, a testament to love for both words and people.
Resilience defines you—firm yet gentle, principled yet compassionate.
Every lesson you share becomes a bridge between intellect and humanity.
Deep in our hearts, with sadness I recall moments when absence felt unthinkable.
Blessed are we, for God, in wisdom, placed you where your light could serve many.
Despite change that tempts us to rescind what time has altered, gratitude remains.
Amid shared laughter and quiet counsel, friendship grew sincere and enduring.
You are a moonlight flower beauty, calm, luminous, and quietly rare.
Appreciation rises not only for what you do, but for who you are.
Praise be to God for sending you to us—our colleague, our friend, our gift.
