Marami pong salamat sa inyo Mahal naming Pangulong Corazon "Cory" Cojuangco Aquino, sa lahat ng sakripisyo at buhay na inialay ninyo sa ating inang bayan.
Simula pa sa inyong kabiyak na si Senador Benigno "Ninoy" Servillano Aquino Jr., na nagtanggol sa mamamayang pilipino at ibinuwis maging ang sarili niyang buhay alang-alang sa mga mamamayang lugmok na sa kahirapan at kurapsyon mula sa dikatadurang pamunuan ng Republika ng Pilipinas noon [magpasa-hanggang ngayon]. Tunay kayong dakila at nagmalasakit sa sambayanang pilipino, tunay kayong huwaran sa sinuman, hindi lamang sa ating bayan kung hindi sa buong sanlibutan.
Ang nakakalungkot lamang pong isipin na magpa-hanggang sa ngayon ay hindi pa rin ganap na nagigising o natututo ang marami sa ating mga kababayan sa pagsasaliksik at pagpili sa ating mga ihahalal upang mamuno, hindi pa rin tayo ganap na mulat sa lahat ng mga pangaapi o pagsasamantala sa atin ng karamihan sa mga pulitiko na walang inisip kung hindi ang kanilang pangsariling kapakanan at hindi ng sambayanan.
Ang lagi po naming dalangin sa inyong paglisan, na sana po ay tuluyan nang mapukaw ang damdamin nang lahat ng ating mga kababayan at mga pulitiko na nag-nanais mamuno hindi lamang sa pagka-pangulo kung hindi sa lahat ng antas ng sangay ng gobyerno.
Na sana po ay magpatuloy ang inyong mabuting halimbawa na inyong sinimulan na nagpapakita nang isang tunay na nagmamalasakit sa buong sambayanan. Batid din po namin na sa kadahilanan ng inyong sinimulan ay hindi kami bibiguin nang inyong anak na si Senador Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" Cojuangco Aquino III. At batid din po namin ang kanyang mabuting kalooban gaya ng kanyang mga magulang. Gayon din po kay Ginang Kristina Bernadette "Kris" Cojuangco Aquino-Yap na isa sa lima ninyong mabubuting bunga ay may ginintuang puso na tulad ninyo para sa sambayanang pilipino at handang tumulong sa mga nangangailangan at kapus palad.
Muli po nais naming bigkasin ang aming walang humpay na pagpapasalamat sa lahat nang inyong malasakit sa ating inang bayan. Maraming, maraming salamat po SENADOR BENIGNO "NINOY" SERVILLANO AQUINO JR. AT PANGULONG CORAZON "CORY" COJUANGCO AQUINO. Sana po ay marami pa ang dumating na tulad ninyo upang mamuno sa ating bayan, na tulad ninyo na tunay na nagmamahal sa ating inang bayan. MARAMING, MARAMING SALAMAT PO.

Cory Aquino made it possible for us to make it normal for a woman to be president. Against all odds, seven coup attempts in the six years she was president, she restored our confidence, instilled hope in a future of possibilities, and demonstrated a new brand of leadership – compassionate, committed and kind.
Filipina women’s contributions are too often omitted from the narrative of the building of our community. Cory Aquino changed that, and she continues to be an esteemed role model for Filipina women.
Cory Aquino urged us not only to be proud of our Filipino roots but also to unite and remember how a strong and proud community, acting together, can make a difference. A reluctant leader, she graciously embraced her role and once she did that....politcians, community leaders and business executives followed.
I think she encouraged all of us especially the youth of the 80's to participate in the dialogue of change and why we need to be part of the decisions that affect our lives. She planted the seeds of leadership in me and birthed many of the leaders today.
I reflect on her legacy and to honor her...we should carry on the torch of Cory's brand of leadership.

We have lost a great president, a great Filipino, and a great woman. And we have all lost a mother.
In her lifetime Cory Aquino was such a cheerful and invigorating presence that it was easy to forget what daunting historic tasks she set herself. She sought to mend the Philippine's wounded spirit, to restore the strength of the free world, and to free the Philippine people from the hands of tyranny.
These were causes hard to accomplish and heavy with risk.
Yet they were pursued with almost a lightness of spirit. For Cory Aquino also embodied another great cause - what Arnold Bennett once called `the great cause of cheering us all up'. Her politics had a freshness and optimism that won converts from every class and every nation - and ultimately from the very heart of the evil.
For the final years of her life, Cory's mind was clouded by illness. That cloud has now lifted. She is herself again - more herself than at any time on this earth. For we may be sure that God never forgets those who remember Him. And as the last journey of this faithful pilgrim took her beyond the sunset, and as heaven's morning broke, I like to think that `all the trumpets sounded on the other side'.
We here still move in twilight. But we have one beacon to guide us that Corazon Aquino never had. We have his example. Let us give thanks today for a life that achieved so much for all of God's children.
