DILG Region 6 Western Visayas

It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to a beloved friend and colleague, LGOO VI Leda C. Cenon.

Leda may have gone before us but she left behind memories and a legacy that will live on through the years. More than a dedicated public servant, she was an exceptional mentor and a dependable friend to many. Her memory will live on to everyone she has served, and every heart she has touched.

We pray for the eternal repose of her soul, and for strength and comfort for her family and loved ones during this difficult time.
