“It is a great feeling of fondness and admiration that I have for Tessie Luz,” said former chairman of the 1995 CCP board Chingay Lagdameo.
“To me, Tessie is more than a friend. She will remain in memory as a noble patron and an icon and defender of the Cultural Center of the Philippines, a major repository of the Filipino’s cultural heritage,” she added.
