Mom's Library

Legacies.

Some women have grandchildren, some women build libraries.

Named after my grandfather, the Basilio B. Garrote Memorial Library is located in La Paz, Bohol, Philippines. A man I never knew died of, of all things appendicitis during World War II, was a councilman and avid bookworm. Six decades later, his youngest daughter would want his name and his legacy to live on.
