The Heroes Memorial Gate at the entrance of the cemetery was constructed during the term of President Fidel Ramos. Unfortunately, the tablet does not mention the name of the artist.

About CASA Veneracion
Casa is Spanish for house. CASA is also an acronym for Connie, Antonio, Sam and Alex. We are all surnamed Veneracion. We all love to take photos -- of anything that catches our fancy. It's a family obsession.
This is a journal of how we live, eat, learn, play and have fun. Work? Work is part of playing and having fun. Seriously.
The kitchen staff
In 2003, a time when I hadn't heard of the term "blog", I started a recipe website at cooking.houseonahill.net using a now defunct content management system that ran on ASP. Ok, never mind the geek talk, I'm sure you're not interested in that. The contents easily multiplied and, in 2004, I moved the food site to pinoycook.net. Always unhappy with the fact that the dot com versions of houseonahill and pinoycook weren't … (click here to read all ยป)

Iwould llike to make a request. My father was a WWII Veteran and was in Death March. His name is Full Colonel Manuel Escares Maravilla. He died and was buried in the cemetery December of 1969 or 1970. He retired from the Phil. Army and if any chance you have in your file his Military Records could you send them to me via E-mail if posible. If in any case you cannot perform my request, could you please refer me to someone that can help me with my father’s Military Records. Thank you for your efforts.
Adrian, sorry, can’t help you.
Yes! At least I read one objection to the renaming of Manila International Airport.
I hope he wasn’t buried in the Heroe’s Cemetary.
Joe, most politicians… their first official act is to rename a street, a school, a hospital or even an airport in honor of some dead relative. Like I said, poor taste.
hi!
meron po akong tito dyan sa pinas siya si MAJOR GENERAL PROSPERO A OLIBAS na taga cagayan valley.gusto lang po sa nang malaman ang kanyang military record kung puwede? salamat po.
joe.b, visit the armed forces website.
Nice blog.One of the best, I spent two days of my vacation just browsing over it, and I’m not finished yet.Love it, reallyand nice family you’ve got.I do agee with you about naming the airport after Ninoy but for a different reason, I thought it is a great diservice into his memory naming after him a decripit and ineffecient airport.
I wondered what happened with my request I asked about when I send my email to you. I accidentally surf the web and saw my father’s name, but anyhow, thank you again for your reply and your efforts. May the Almighty bless you for what you are doing for our heroes.
adrian, i gave you my response above. and i’m not doing anything for any heroes. i don’t even believe in heroes. i’m just a photo hobbyist.
can you possibly take a close up picture of the crosses w/ the dead soldiers name on it? I’m looking for col pablo d evangelista ret. col. paf. He was buried at the libingan sometime sept of 07. Thanks
Wow. I don’t remember you hiring me as your secretary.
If you have nothing to do with our heroes, then at lease appologised that your job does not allow you to do what we are asking for. Any how for your information the military records of our heroes was sent to Washington D.C. They have this stupid f…ing, pardon my French, regulation that the only relatives who can ask for our heroes military records, is the spouse, the first born child, the first born grandchild, etc…. To bad, by Gods will I am not not one of these people. Not even those who followed their fathers foot steps who are also a veterans themselves cannot ask for their farther’s military records. Now you know and please pass this along. “Pagpalaan ka Ng Maykapal.”
Oh, the pictures were really nice. Thank you. Maybe someday I myself may help my fella sons and daugthers of our heroes. I will keep you posted. That is if you do not mind. Again, thank you for your service and “Pagpalaan ka Ng Maykapal.” They are all what our country has left for us to remmember for. I am not angry at you, but I am just pissed off with the process to this government, that is the US of A. Thank you again, you did a good work. Sorry.
Ang pinoy nga naman, pati iyong huling hantungan ng kanilang mga banyani ay palpak. Those crosses should remain upright at all times. Nakakahiya.
anu sasakyan pagpunta libingan ng mga bayani pag galing cubao?
Kotse.
Pag pumunta po kayo dun dapat may sasakyan kayo kasi medyo malayo pero pwede nyo malakad kung matiyaga kayo. Ang maganda kasi dun kasi maganda ang lugar at malinis. Dun nilibing ang father ko eh last December 2010 lang.
ano po ba iyan.. ive been looking for the telephone number ng libingan ng mga bayani office.. pero wla po akong makita..grabe!
Bakit ka dito naghahanap eh hindi naman ito website ng Libingan ng mga Bayani. Grabe.
..also if someone would say MR. Reyes, did a great deal of service to this country and deserves to be at Libing ng mga Bayani…well he is paid…or over paid???
Apologies, i can’t just bear the dissapoinment I have for the AFP instution whom I thought the least to cheat. But the testimonies are just overwhelming to be a smear campaign.
wrongly posted comment on this topic..should have been to “the suicide wagon”.
You can repost it under the correct entry.
hello. ask ko lang po kung may alam kau sa extent ng area ng libingan ng mga bayani? ang katipunan village ba sakop ng presidential proclamation creating libingan ng mga bayani? kasi marami ng nademolished na mga pamamahay dito at sooner or later lahat mawawala na rito. may mga isyu na nagsasabi na gagawin itong another afpovai? wla bang involve na mga military o public officials na may sariling personal na motibo like financial? thanks.
Ah you’re doing a school paper? Go there. They have offices and people and documents.
