Family was at the center of her life. She was a wonderful mother and proud Navy wife. She created that safe harbor – a loving home that was always open to family and friends.
A woman of many talents – Andrelina was an excellent cook and the family loved that she put her own touch on Filipino dishes which were the first to go at family gatherings. She was an expert seamstress and made many of her own clothes as well as performed alterations and tailoring for her husband and children. She also loved to garden and was the envy of the family and neighborhood. All plants thrived under her care, especially her orchids. She was a big sports fan of tennis, football and especially baseball and enjoyed watching with her family.
She liked jigsaw puzzles, doing crossword puzzles and playing Scrabble. Her favorite game shows were Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune.
