I was always surrounded by men, and I loved it! My doting lawyer grandfather made me feel like a VIP all the time; my uncles fell for the charms of five-year-old me; my father made me feel invincible because he was there to protect me; and my seven crazy brothers made me laugh, cry, and trained me to be strong (imagine a life with seven strong-willed boys!). Oh, these men! Without them, my life would be boring; because of them, I have grappled with life’s many uncertainties.

Titled “Men Of Connected Women,” this series pays tribute to the wonderful men who've made an impact in our lives. These are the men who've inspired us, helped us, mentored us, raised us. Because behind every woman is a man who has made her who she is today.
I had known my “Daddy Loves,” “Papa Naro,”and “Daddy June” or June Marzo, as a friendly and thoughtful man when we were just friends. He’s the person who will sacrifice in order for you to have what you want or survive. And that was the role he played with his family, starting from Nanay Letty, to his siblings—Luis, Teresa, Rodel, Nathan, Jack, and Angelo. He was a father and brother to his family. Making the night to into a day to augment his family’s needs.
