San Beda Classmates


CLASS PICTURE





I attended another get together of San Beda classmates, Elem '59 and HS '63 last night at the palatial home of Vic Barranda in San Juan Metro Manila. Early birds were Jimmy Santos, HS'62 but was with us in AB Philo '67, Tony Perez, in red , who came with his fav son Princeton, MOI, clebrity lawyer Vit Aguirre, Ateneo Professor Dr. Manny Tejido, Biz Center pioneer Bobby de la Paz and Judge Bert Serrano. Except for Tony, everyone in this photo were AB Philo buddies.The affair was hosted by Dennis Ang who was reportedly celebrating his 6_? birthday so the speculation was that was the reason for his hosting. Dennis is shown on the photo with Bert Serrano, who is an RTC judge and Bobby de la Paz. Dennis is a successful stockbroker and had very good investment advice for his HS classmates.
In attendance as shown in photo: seated:Sonny Lozano, Bobby de la Paz, Jimmy Santos, Vit Aguirre, Cesar Reyes, Manny Tejido, Art Tugade, Vic Barranda, Manny Pilares
standing: Dennis Ang, Bert Bacsal, Sherwin Yu, Simmy Po, Tony Perez, Bert Serrano.
Also present but not in the photo: Lito Ancheta, Tony de Vera and Bobby Javier

My 62nd Birthday

For several years, my co-workers always had a little party for me at the office. This year, I was absent on my birthday and instead, invited them over to our houseto sample the "feast" that Mama prepared.
Look at the cake they gave me. It's a green shirt with matching blue tie.
