Lolita and Angel enjoyed the company of their dear friends and relatives. So much so that they had many large parties including their 40th and 50th wedding anniversaries. She was very social and loved being with friends and relatives. People would come over to her house just to talk and enjoy their company. She was very giving and even offered her house for friends and relatives to stay when they were in need. She also helped out her relatives here in the states as well as the ones in the Philippines.
Her hobbies included folk dancing in the Philippines, gardening, and later on, ballroom dancing with her husband and, of course friends. She also enjoyed traveling and touring with her husband and her many friends.
Besides being close to her sisters and brother, and loving her husband and children, Lolita loved being a grandmother and doted on the grandchildren.
Family was the most important and most precious thing to her. Her husband, children and grandchildren always came first.
