I am saddened to hear about the passing of former Sen. Leticia Ramos-Shahani. In my years of public service, I have looked up to her for inspiration, courage and wisdom. Her words and works in the legislative, executive and diplomatic fronts are more than enough for the entire nation to bestow respect and adulation.
Even during her retirement, she remained a voice of reason and diplomacy.
My thoughts and prayers are with her bereaved family.
