February 2001 Edition

LOVE Is The Greatest

     This month, we stressed that you let your LOVE show. We may think "it's understood" when it comes to Love but we have to say and show it...... to assure our loved ones that we do love them.
     Make more effort to show your love.  Make everyday a Valentines Day.

Mabuhay Ang Bagong Pilipinas!

We were delighted to hear the news on the current changes in the Philippine politics and let us continue to pray for the economic miracle that we need in our country.

Congratulations to all of our home-based classmates especially those who took it to the streets of EDSA!

Newly-Found Buddy

     Here is an initial bulletin filed by Malou Cruz-Santos on Ferdinand Lomibao.  Malou informed us that Ferdie works in the IT department of GMA- Channel 7.  His children still study in ICAM in Tondo, Manila though he resides in Quezon City.  "I saw him in my daughter's school (PWU-JASMS) sometime in November last year, where he was planning to transfer at least 2 of his 3 children.  I accompanied him to the Principal's Office, who happens to my daughter's friend."

*Thanks for the phone numbers Malou, we will try to get more info from Ferdie.

Rey Bisda is waiting to hear back from Renato Barredo. 

Retro-Photo

Joseph and the Amazing Special Science Dudes and Dudettes

Where is Waldo....I mean, Joseph? Mr. Gelito is the guy in the stripes. He blends well with everybody.  If you're brainy, he is, too. See if you can name our special friends in the picture.

But really....where is Joseph?  Can somebody find him please?  That's Gelito not Estrada, eh?

  Family of the Month

The Parado Family

The More The Merrier...that's the proven fact in the Parado Family. 

      Felix Parado is a common name back in high school.  Everyone knows Felix. His friendly nature never fades.  He is still the same courteous fellow.  Coupled with another friendly Math gal, Tess Santiago-Parado....the two is one of the gems of the Math group.  They keep us informed and close to each other.   Felix and Tess are the main source of information that made AfterMath 78 possible.

     I won't forget when Lex called me in the office.  They have 3 kids back then.  He told me, "Val there is a problem."  I was so concerned.  He said, "Tess is pregnant again....and it's going to be a twin."  They treasure their  5 kids... Maristel (11), Francis (7), Patrick (5), and their twins Fe & Cris (3) so much.  They are the source of fun for our Californian couple.

     I truly admire Felix.  He works hard for Tess and the kids.  Juggling between 2 sometimes 3 jobs....I can say the kids are in good hands.  Tess is a model of a dedicated and concerned mother.  She is a full-time Mom making sure the kids are safe and healthy.

     It is an honor to be considered a friend of the Parados.  All the best to Lex & Tess & Maristel, Francis, Patrick, Fe & Cris!!!
