In Cubao, Quezon City, a 51-year-old peanut vendor was surprised to receive an academic medal as he was hawking his wares on 31 March.
A video aired on GMA News showed the medal being hung around Crisanto Ordonio’s neck by none other than his own daughter while he was carrying the bucket of fried peanuts he sells to pedestrians.
Daughter Franciska Mae Ordonio, who shared the video, received the medal for graduating from senior high school with honors. Her father had to skip the ceremony in order to sell peanuts and raise money for the celebration of her graduation later that day.
Franciska went to the bus terminal, where her father sold peanuts after the ceremony to personally hang the medal on him as a gesture of gratitude and to honor him for working hard to support their family.
Crisanto was teary-eyed after receiving the medal and high-fived his daughter for her achievement. He encouraged her to continue excelling academically, which she promised to do in college.
