By Cherry Sun

Kris Aquino shows her mom, former President Cory Aquino's engagement ring a few days before the latter's 10th death anniversary.

Kris shared a photo of a prized heirloom she received from her mother as she looked back at the memories she had with her mom.

Kris wrote, “A decade has passed, and yet it feels as fresh as a moment ago. i remember signing DNR forms. i can still feel being shaken awake when her monitors signaled that she'd soon flatline. i can see all of us praying the Rosary and saying goodbye. i remember signing her death certificate. i recall getting into the vehicle that transported our mom's remains to the Heritage mortuary. And i can never forget my auntie passy giving me her pearl earrings for mom to wear.

"Please allow me to let you get to know my mom through my eyes, as i share some special things she left me to keep. this was her ENGAGEMENT RING from my Dad... the quality you seem to like in me, my devotion as a mom comes naturally, because i grew up LOVED,” she continued.

Cory succumbed to cancer on August 1, 2009.
