    Pinay bride swept by giant waves during marriage proposal
    Updated December 06, 2008 12:00 AM

    NESKOWIN, Oregon – A romantic marriage proposal on the West Coast turned deadly for a Filipina bride-to-be when a wave swept her out to sea.

    Scott Napper had taken 22-year-old Leafil Alforque to Proposal Rock near Neskowin Beach to pop the question at a place that got its name from couples ready to marry.

    Napper and Alforque had been dating since they met on the Internet in 2005.

    But Alforque had arrived in Oregon on a visa from the Philippines just three days before the fateful trip to the coast, The Oregonian reported.

    Napper said the tide had receded around Proposal Rock on Saturday when the couple began to walk to it. He planned to propose and give her the ring he carried in his pocket.

    About 10 feet (3 meters) from the rock, a wave about 3 feet (.9 meters) high suddenly came toward them.

    “I turned into it to keep from getting pulled under it,” Napper said.

    By the time he turned to find Alforque, only 4-foot-11 (1.2-meter) and 93 pounds (42 kilograms), she had been caught by the receding waters.

    nope. fiance insured his fiancee and the former as beneficiary. pag ma dead, claim na niya...even in the establishment of insurable interest upon getting an insurance, attended with fraud na.

    kaya po siya scam Sir. the taking of insurance in the name of the fiancee even before the fiance obtains an insurable interest upon the life of the insured. this has happened with our Filipino women as victims, hence the law prohibited mail order bride in the light of this, among others.
