Also present at the graduation were Ruffa’s younger daughter, Venice Bektas, her brother Raymond Gutierrez and other family members.
“As I pack for Manila with a fever and a full heart… a mom’s tears say it all. No matter how hard life gets, we rise,” Ruffa wrote in her caption.
“Congratulations once again my dearest Lorin. You’ve made all of us so proud. This achievement is not just ours, but also for everyone who supported you along the way. Never forget to stay humble, keep your faith and always pray,” she added.
