Catalino Tablizo was a dedicated veterinarian and one of the first in Bayambang, Pangasinan. He served his hometown not for profit, but out of genuine care for both animals and people. Often, he accepted eggs or chickens as payment, showing his humility and commitment to helping others regardless of their means. As the town’s veterinarian, he ensured that all meat from the local slaughterhouse was safe and healthy, earning the trust and gratitude of the entire community.
Catalino was a devoted husband and father to two daughters, both of whom are now pursuing careers in medicine. His passing after a long battle with kidney failure and diabetes has left a significant void in the lives of his family and those who knew him. Today, his family faces the challenge of covering hospital bills and funeral expenses. Supporting this fundraiser will help ease the financial burden on his wife and daughters, allowing them to focus on honoring his memory and supporting each other through this difficult time.
