Knowing our loved ones is such a treasure that at times goes beyond any material possession that one can own. Thus it is our privilege on this post to know further the treasures in life of our dear family member Kris Zyra Jugan- Uy.

Kris is the sole princess of Edgar and Alma Jugan. Her siblings are Ed Nino, Ed Mark and the youngest, Ed Fernand Rey. Unfortunately for her and the family, their beloved "tatay" has joined our Divine Creator two years ago due to heart attack. That incident was considered as the most devastating thing that happened as well as the worst time for the whole family. They all miss him terribly. Especially for her being a tatay's girl, she terribly missed him.
One of her treasured events in life is her marriage to a Filipino-Chinese guy named Marlon Tiu Uy. Kris believed that fate brought both of them together since Marlon, who hails from Butuan City, decided to open up his hardware business in Liloan. Moreover, it is on this similar location that her parents started their water refilling business. The two establishments are just a few meters away from each other and believing on the saying "Love thy neighbours" thus they started their love story and rest is history.
The marriage is blessed with 2 beautiful daughters, Zophia Miel Jugan-Uy who is turning 4
on November 16, and Zia Mizael Jugan-Uy who is going to be turning 1 this
coming November 23. Both girls resemble their dad’s features and no trace of being a
Jugan on them. But her eldest Zophia is always proud of her family name and
would never forget to mention “Jugan” when ask what is her name.
Gigs or Ai-ai to her family and Zyra to her friends, she graduated BS in Nursing at University of the Visayas and fortunately passed the
licensure examinations afterwards. Her husband is a graduate of BS in HRM in University of
San Jose Recoletos in the hope of going to work in a cruise ship, but as she believed that fate brought them together, he instead ended up managing their family business in Liloan.
Kris loves the way her husband becomes her equal opposite since she is also a believer of Isaac Newton who conceptualised the "The law of Attraction”. Thus, she thinks that this accorded balance in their relationship. She describes herself as a bit ill-tempered while he is annoyingly too calm. Consequently this causes her to be too impatient while patience becomes her husband's virtue. On the other hand, just like any typical lady, she loves shopping but Marlon is a little bit stingy. One other contrast between them is that she tends to be on the artistic side and can be very sociable while he prefers to keep his silence.

Among their favourite past times are playing badminton and go mountain biking. For her, quality time with each other as couple is very essential thus she makes it sure that they spend time together during weekends since they both go to work from Monday to Saturday. For their two treasures in life, they constantly make it sure that they bring them to malls also on weekend as their means of strengthening the family bonding.

As her future goals, somehow in a period of 5
or 10 years, she would like to see herself and her family migrating to Canada. That
has been her dream ever since though there are lots of hindrances to it. For this loving wife and mom, her ultimate goal is
providing all the best for her girls, being able to bring them up the right
way, and mould them so as to become better individuals that any moms could hope for.
