Ms Zorayda Amelia C.
ALONZO
Former President,
Pag-IBIG Fund
Treasurer,
Bayanihan Folk Arts Foundation
(HZB birthday,
June 27, 2004)
She is an icon, a great woman worthy
of |
|
|
|
|
emulation.
But personally,
I consider
myself fortunate to have had the privilege of
knowing and seeing her up close, of spending
hours with her, talking about what leadership is
all about: as service to God, country, and home. |

Dr, Jose Conrado "Joly"
BENITEZ
Nephew, former PWU President
(HZB birthday, June 27, 2004)
For me personally, Tita Helen was the ideal, the role model, the one to look up to. Although her public and civil society roles demanded much of her time and attention, she was never too busy nor too important to give us the time, attention, guidance and helping hand we needed. She was always there for us; for me, personally. |

Benitez is the embodiment of what should endure
in women throughout the world through the ages.
Great deeds, indeed, she has done for
institutions and movements throughout the world
as founder, program initiator, direction setter,
innovator and preserver of what needed to be
retained and an ardent advocate for what ought
to be changed. |
