CALLING ALL FORMER DAET PAROCHIAL SCHOOL STUDENTS

On March 10, Sor Victorina will be celebrating her 99th Birthday (not 100 as everyone including the Congregation, earlier thought so... They checked the birth records of Sor Victorina and found out, she'll just be 99 this coming Wednesday ("just" doesn't seem to be the appropriate word). Nonetheless, the Augustinians will give her a big celebration as they are not sure if she'll still be around next year. She has grown much weaker now, compared to last year when she celebrated her "first" 99th birthday.

ALL THOSE WHO HAVE OLD DPS PICTURES WITH SOR VICTORINA IN THEM, PLEASE SCAN AND SEND TO gold50@gmail.com.

IF YOU WANT TO JOIN THE CELEBRATION (Tentatively to start at 4 pm with a mass at the La Consolacion Convent in Santolan Road, Pinaglabanan, San Juan City), and you want to bring some food, gifts, or some cash donation, please contact Sis. Teresita Azanes at 09213119618.

He gained considerable success with the quartet he formed with Chet Baker in 1952, and he led ensembles of various sizes thereafter. Mulligan served jail time after he was arrested in 1953 for what?
