From Minda

Dear Fe,
I just got to work and read Alice's email. Please accept our deepest condolences with the passing of Mandy. I will definitely include him in my prayers tonight.

I know there is not enough kind words for me say at your time of sorrow. We are an hour away from Daly City, please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.

Take care, always.

God bless,

Minda

Hi all,
Got a sad news to all of you, see Fe Tengco Labayen's email below. I know Mandy was hospitalized right after the SMU reunion. It was shocking to the family then, let alone that he is gone. Please include him and also Fe and her family in your daily prayers. Kindly forward this to Perlita and other friends because I do not have my address list here in AZ.

We just left for Arizona the day he died. We could have been there for the family because we live in Daly City but we just missed it. Fe email-ed me a month ago that her husband's situation was not getting any better so I offered to stop by to visit, if she had the chance to let me know where they were. Worry, stress, care of a very sick love one etc. is understandable and enough to keep her busy. Now that he is gone forever, the emptiness in their hearts and home is the most difficult time to face. Let us all be one family and be supportive of each other. We all care!!!!!!!!!

Fe, our sympathy and condolences to you and the family. We will offer 2 masses in his honor meanwhile we are in AZ. I will let you know the dates. Keep in touch.....

We will get back home in Daly City by Oct.5.

God bless,

Alice and Del

Dear Alice,>

With deep sorrow, I wish to inform our SMU class and friends, through you, that my husband, Mandy, passed away last Sunday night, Sept 17, in Daly City. He succumbed to cancer of the liver. In keeping with his wishes, there's no viewing and he was cremated yesterday. He'll be buried at the Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Colma on Sat, Sept 23, following a Mass at 9:00am in St. Andrew's on Southgate, Daly City.

Please keep Mandy in your prayers.

FE

Wow, I can't believe we were once upon a time young. I must say sometimes we go thru senior lapse so it is difficult to brainstorm the names of all classmates. It went by fast specially when you see your children and grandchildren. Some of our classmates are also gone way ahead of us. As the saying goes, "people are dying because there must be something good up there". So we better behave........

I can't remember any crush on our classmates but I have a fuuny incident to share. I joined my husband here in US in 1967, then 2 months later he had to leave and finnish his contract overseas. I was alone, so I stayed with the Tenedero Family and Evangeline Delos Angeles here in San Francisco. I can not remember how Evangeline and I met (a former classmate) who was in the US then. He visited us in the Tenedero's residence and would you believe he later proposed....... What was he thinking???? He knew I was married. Hahahaha, I was even pregnant then, belly sticking out of course. Evangeline and I read his love letter ( I never replied) and of course was amazed and joked about it. To this day we laugh at it when Evangeline and I recalls the past.

This is something to share, recall and laugh at the past.

Alice
Thanks for the Memories from Minda!!!

Tara! Yesterday when I was young so many lovely things were waiting to be done! Ang gaganda natin noon. ano? Mga batam-bata! Mga inosenteng- inosente! There's Arthur G, Virgilio, Benedicto... Diki, Dolfo, then me. Sorry, can't see much without eyeglasses and I left it at home.
Please tell me by email where your former crush is in this pic, just between you and me and the blog! But what do we look like now, after our tussle with life? Abangan! Say something, Conding. Say something, Perlas! Our classmates are raring for the homecoming of 2009! But around the end of the month, Terri will be home!!! Yep, to her very own place in Bonfal! And it will be a preview of the homecoming.

A 12 Story Structure In Nueva Vizcaya!

Hi, it's me again. The heroes building you told me is in Casat. Many years back when I went to Casat to visit my niece, we passed by a big concrete house surrounded by a concrete fence. I was told it was owned by an arabo. That's the same guy that built this structure that is featured in the news. That's good that he did that. Now Casat will be a tourist spot and will help those people there. I used to teach there and I recall those hills that we use to walk just to get to the school.. Memories. My Principal was Mr. Ammuyutan the brother in law of Fely Tugab. People in Casat were so receptive of us and how can I forget that. Got to close. I'm starting to reminisce too much.

Bye and ingat.
Regards to your family.

Jun, u forgot I don't fly out of LA until the 26th of Sep. I'll be in Manila the 28th. Don't worry, I have a way of looking for that structure you mentioned. I have a lot of look outs and when I find out exactly, I'll email u. Don't forget I will try to find some of our classmates and schedule a get together by the 2 of Nov. It was suppose to be the 1st but that's when we go to the cemetery to pay our respect to our dearly departed. Any request for a pasalubong?

Ok ingat.

Or if u have a better idea about our get together with classmates speak out!

Hi, Minda! Wow, that was a fast response, the fastest I've had so far- almost like Instant Messaging! Ok, gang! Let us spread out and find it! Terri was flying out from there yesterday, so she should be in RP about this time. Anytime soon I expect Terri's voice on my phone- and it won't be long distance! Take care, folks! Jun

Hi All !

We went home in Dec 2005 but I did not see it. We stayed in Bambang, but went to visit our old house in front of Bangan Hill. So maybe it is not Bangan Hill, but near La Torre, you know where there is a reservoir.I did hear a story that a rich Middle Eastern person built a school close to La Torre so his kids could go there. Next time we go home, I will make sure I ask about it. : )

Regards,

Erlinda Quitevis

12-story Rizal shrine is Jordanian's gift to FilipinosPosted 05:19am (Mla time) Dec 29, 2005By Melvin Gascon Inquirer

It was a sunny Christmas morning, an ideal time for philanthropist Mahmoud Asfour to be giving away gifts to children in a farming village in Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya. But the year-round Santa Claus was nowhere in sight. He was on top of a hill, checking on his greatest gift to Filipinos.
