Making the Connection

March 9, 2007

I am very happy, too, renewing ties with all of you after all theseyears. Only Bert padrigon and I were together until college because we both studied in Ateneo de Naga. Si Felino din yata, but maybe he took a different course, I can't remember now. Most of you studied in Manila, and even on vacations, we hardly got together after a while. I'm glad to hear again from Rudy (I remember we were able to talk by phone and set a schedule for a meeting, but I think EDSA I happened and that meeting didn't push through, and eventually we lost contact with each other. That was a long time ago.) It seems Marybeth is the most "productive" with three childen, five grandchildren and another soon to come.

I hope the others with email addresses here, will also post their messages - Joe Sales, Eddie Canela - paramdaman naman dyan. I again posted more "oldies but goodies" pictures from Men in the Files Folder. You will really enjoy these, pabata-nang-pabata -elementary days pa!

Oh Captain, our Captain: The acknowledged leader of our Class

March 8

Hello Classmates,

Last Tuesday, I've talked with Men Venida on the phone and Joe Sales, afterwards. It was a very nice feeling to hear their voices after a very long time. I hope both of them can make it to our reunion so they can share their stories to the rest of you, guys. I was planning to call Marybeth Regalario and Fechie Alarcon that same day but it was already too late in the evening and I did not want to spoil their beauty sleep.


Mendy, thank you. You've started this all for me through the letter you've sent me. I get to learn more about our classmates now through their emails.

Toti, you've always been the MAN. This is a very good thing you've been doing for the class............... I've been doing just fine, thank you.

Rory, always keep in touch but preferably with skype or yahoo messenger with voice and please produce a mic, next time. We both hate typing anyway.

Danny, I did separate from the Air Force in 1986 to join PAL, but now I am with EVA AIRWAYS..........I've been also wondering about your whereabouts. Alot, I am sorry that I missed the luncheon meeting with Danny but next time I'll be there. I hate to disappoint you again.

Manny Abogado, my kumpadre and the only classmate I get to see everytime I go home to Daet............... I can attend this reunion this time, pare.

To the rest of you, my classmates, I love you and I hope to see you all on the 14th and 15th of April.

MORE POWER TO DPS CLASS 67

March 3

Hi Toti, Glad to be able to sign up with your egroup. Loved the pictures and looking forward to more in the near future. Thank you for making the effort to create one. It sure makes me feel connected despite distance. Soon as I figure out how to send pics in this web page, I'll send some taken during my visit last month in Daet with few of our classmates.

Our Link to the Past

Hi Guys,

This is Myrna "Men" Venida-Abot, one of your former DPS classmates, now married to Rene Abot, Jr., since 1977, has 3 kids (2 boys, 1 girl)- IJ III 29, Myrene 27, and JV 20. Presently, residing in the USA since 1991. Worked as Legal Assistant for 4 years in New York, moved to California - worked for Washington Mutual Bank for 10 years and now connected with the Dept. of Justice- working as Tagalog Interpreter. Normally go back to Daet every 2 years until 2003. When my Mom had a stroke in 2005 I make sure to go home twice a year. I met with some of our classmates in 2005/2006, like Mendy, Yoly, Remo, Ramona, Susan, Estrella Asis, Joe Zano, Boying Pajarillo, Fr. Sanchez, Milagros, Echano,Manny Abogado and Boboy( whom I see almost everytime I go home). They've been planning this reunion since then and Mendy had been very busy trying to make this occasion a success - I really appreciate all her efforts. I want to see all of you guys and enjoy everyone's company one more time. I sure hope to get a time off from work to be with all of you. I talk to Joe Sales almost every week, Ed Canela emails me every now and then. I hope to hear from all of you soon.

Men-sorry to hear about your mother. I saw her a few years back still very active and into ballroom. She is in a better place now just like my mom too. How's Joe Sales? I haven't heard from him for the longest time. Can you share me his phone # or email? And also Ed Canela's?Thanks and best regards to all. Pls. keep these emails coming.

Dear Fechie,

Thank you for your condolence. Actually, I lost 3 loved ones last year (my Mom's youngest sister who lived with us, brother Adolfo "Puto" and Mama). I am really sad but glad that they are not in pain anymore. You said your brother is very sick - which brother is it? I know 4 of them, the priest, Manuel, Jovencio and Joaquin. Please let me know so I can pray for him. Please take care.

Hi Men,

You continue to amaze me! Not only do you have the pictures of yesteryears but you also have the list of our classmates. This is fantastic! I know you were one of the class officers but I did not know that you were designated archives of DPS too. Great job!
