Mom
Now, meet my mom. Isn’t she gorgeous? Friends call her "PAY"; Dad calls her "MOYBEBS" (the reason for
the monicker is as secret as the Holy Grail). My mom’s Christian name is MELFA DELOS SANTOS – SALIDAGA. She was
born on August 18, 1969 in Maasin City. She is 5’4 in height, weighing --- (never mind). A graduate of Accountancy from
Philippine School of Business Administration, and a CPA, she is at present working with the Commission on Audit DepED-Maasin
as State Auditor II. Second in the brood of four, mom is the daughter of Atty. Fabian Tan Delos Santos, and Melinda Garces
Kangleon.

Dad
And my dad is (drum rolls…) "PORF" by friends and enemies. When my mom is mad at him, he is called by
his long, solid name: PORFERIO ARCUINO SALIDAGA, JR. He is handsome, that is what my Lola Nini, his mother, says. So, girls,
keep your hands off of my dad. A graduate of AB Communication Arts from the University of the Philippines, dad is currently
working with the Social Security System-Maasin City Branch as Head of the Field Inspectorate Team. The eldest among the siblings
of three, my dad is the son of Porferio Condino Salidaga, Sr., and Ma. Luz Hibaya Arcuino.
