Emiliana "Amy" Rivera Peregrino

Emiliana “Amy” Peregrino, age 72, was peacefully called home to be with the Lord on December 25, 2025, at her home surrounded by loved ones. Amy was born on June 30, 1953, in Cavite City, Philippines. She attended Barrio School, now known as Wakas Elementary School, and later graduated from Emiliano Tria Tirona Memorial National High School. She continued her education at De Ocampo College and earned her nursing degree from St. Jude School of Nursing, graduating in 1975. Amy began her nursing career as a Staff Nurse at Olivia Salamanca Hospital in Cavite City, answering God’s call to serve others through compassionate care. In 1979, she migrated to the United States, where she continued to live a life guided by faith, love, and service. By God’s providence, Amy met Bobby Peregrino at Tanforan Mall, and he became the love of her life. Together, they built a life centered on family, faith, and devotion. One of Amy’s most admirable qualities was her decisiveness. Once she made up her mind, there was no swaying her—she stood firmly by her choices and followed through with confidence. She spoke her mind with honesty and frankness, always tempered by a warm sense of humor that brought laughter and light to those around her. Amy is survived by her beloved husband, Bobby Peregrino; her children David and wife, Ashley, and Andrew and wife, Racquel; her treasured granddaughters Quinn and Olivia; and grandson Kai, who is “on the way”. She is also lovingly remembered by her siblings, Luth Plado, Nestor Rivera, Christian Rivera, and Fe Camantigue. Amy will be remembered as a faithful servant of God, a devoted wife, a loving mother and grandmother. She lived with courage, strength, honesty, and conviction, offering her love freely and her laughter generously. Her straightforward nature, steady faith, and joyful spirit left a lasting impression on everyone she encountered. Though she will be deeply missed, her family takes comfort in the promise of eternal life and the hope of reunion in God’s heavenly kingdom.
