Corazon Aquino remembered in Manila despite stormy weather

By
THE FACE THAT CHANGED THE COURSE OF HISTORY  The transformation of Corazon Cojuangco-Aquino from “plain housewife” newly arrived from Boston (photo at right) started on Aug. 21, 1983, the assassination of her husband Ninoy Aquino, the political nemesis of the dictator Ferdinand Marcos. The contagion of Ninoy’s courage spread throughout the nation. And “Tita Cory” speaking at rally after indignation rally, this one (above) on Ninoy’s birthday on Nov. 30, led to a clamor for her to run against Marcos in a “snap election.” The rest is her history as an icon of democracy and of nonviolent revolution.  President Aquino and his siblings will observe her 3rd death anniversary Wednesday in private starting with Mass at Manila Memorial Park at 10 a.m. At 5 p.m., the Aquino family is scheduled to unveil a mini exhibit at the Edsa Shrine.
