Adelaida Villegas was born on December 16, 1925. She was married to Eugenio Villegas for 55 years before his passing in 2001. She’s a native of the Philippines, and raised 7 children. She was a seamstress for about 30 years (here in San Diego and also in the Philippines). Her famous convenient store “Aling Daling’s Sari-Sari Store” was a landmark of a small community in the Philippines. This store is where multiple generations of family hung out. If you are craving for a homemade food besides your everyday necessities (grocery items), you can stop by Aling Daling’s store even without cash as long as your line of credit is good
Nanay, Nanay Daling, Aling Daling is what her family and friends called her. She’s a mom to everyone, extremely caring, very kind, and very hospitable. Heaven just gained another great mom and a great cook.
