Musical matriarch marks milestone
Lita Alejar Faustino celebrated recently a major milestone. A few select friends, family and relatives helped her celebrate at the Pacaya Room of the Palma Country Club.
The opening prayer by Lita’s eldest Emy set the mood for one of the evening’s highlights, which was a video montage of special greetings from some celebrity friends (such as Sharon Cuneta, Lani Misalucha, Vicki Belo and Hayden Kho, Gary V., Butch and Tricia Jimenez, and Piolo Pascual) and from family (Lito, Emi, and Krystle Faustino, who all live in Toronto).
It segued to a Lettermen Medley by three of Lita’s eight children (Ding, Tek and Mon, all musical luminaries). Then premiere belter Ivy Violan serenaded Lita’s guests with a nostalgic song. Lita wore outfits that were gifts from her sister Evelyn Alejar-Tuazon, who lives in the US.
