Hi Luz and Ron,
Thank you for hosting our emergency reunion. Good job for pulling it off
despite the short notice. It's nice to see everybody again on top of good
food and good wine. Welcome Vicky and Rene..and of course Jojo again did
his disappearing act, now you see me now you don't (Ron, check your garage
baka nanduon pa si Jojo). Y'all come back now you hear!
You guys are great!!!
Gerry
Shall we plan for the next round?

Hi Gerry,
Glad to hear that you enjoyed. Thanks a lot for bringing Tina and the kids.
It was great to see all of you. Thank God for the perfect weather. Pinagbigyan
tayo kahapon. Today was great in the morning and then it went to gloomy to cold.
Pre, sarap ng luto mo, fiesta pa rin dito, balik kayo ulit at marami pang tira
dahil ayaw ni Rading mag baon, sandwich lang daw. Pre, ang lakas maghilik nitong
bata natin. Pinuntahan pa kami ng LAPD dahil meroon nag-report ng disturbance.
Just kidding.....
Thanks again for taking time out to be here. You guys are the BEST!!!
Ron
p.s. Pre, fyi, wala si Jojo sa garage at nilinis ko na. Naka Amber Alert na hangang
sa susunod na reunion.

Hi Ron & Luz,
Maraming maraming salamat sa pag-host ninyo ng mini-reunion. Ron, ang sarap
mo palang mag-relyenong manok kaya nga't nag-take home ako. Super dami ng
pagkain at wines - chicken satay, grilled shrimps, lechon kawale, relyenong
bangus, veg & pork lumpia, pasta, echilada, veggie salad, baked salmon & tahong,
menudo & wines ni Gerry & Tina, embotido at chicken wings ni pd & ella, kalderetang
kambing ni Rading, sisig from Miles & Raim, super talaba ni Billy & Anna, chicken
lettuce wrap, buko pandan salad at macaroons ni Rene, puto ni Conch, kutsinta ni Amee,
various cakes from Gene & Reuben, chocolates from Jimmy. I'm sure I missed few more
in this list.
Maraming salamat din sa lahat ng mga dumalo kahit na biglaan ang announcement. Thanks for
taking time out from your busy schedules and spending a day with your batchmates. Sa mga
hindi nakadalo, we missed you. As usual yun mga absent ang topic namin. Welcome to
Rene Dimapasok and to Vicky Violan, 2 of our latest batchmates to be found. Sayang at hindi
naka-attend si Nicky Gealogo - I was told that he's relocating from Fontana to LA area that day.
I'm posting some photos taken by Rene Dimapasok in my next emails.
Best regards,
Dennis
PS. Say a prayer for Richie. I learned from Noel that she was involved in a car accident
recently. She's now recuperating and under going therapy.

Masyado namang nakakagutom ang update mo. I can't believe I missed it again.

all had fun and that the group is still going strong.
ciao,

That must have been a get together to remember! I'm sure that if I was there,
my hips and waist size increases would remind me not to over indulge for a long,
long time. Talaga naman you guys were making up for lost time - that menu is
enough for fiesta, noche buena and media noche, + thanksgiving na rin!
Dennis, please give my best to Richie. I will pray for her speedy recovery.
Rocks

Hey Vix,
We missed you. Mukhang busy ka dear. Anyway, hope we have another reunion
sooooon. Pinaguusapan, Arizona daw. Dennis, thanks in advance pero let's not

those who missed this last reunion.
Take care!

Hi Ron and Luz,
Medyo delayed ang feedback ko kasi I have been swamped with field calls.
For 48 hours now I have only slept for about 5 hours. On-call kasi ako for
crime scenes these days for this whole week and so last week I really enjoyed
myself so I can face the harsh realities of my job. Sometimes I envy those who
work in beautiful locales like you Ron, you are surrounded in paradise-like beauty
at the Ritz. T Y V M for hosting our fun-filled mini-kaguluhan at your home.
And I wish you have a wonderful Pinas family vacation. Enjoy! It felt great to spend
fun time with you all.
To the new faces who promised to appear for the next gatherings as well , our newest
members - Rene Dimapasok and Vicky Violan, welcome to the batch75 experience.
Ate Miles - T Y for waiting for me kahit na-late na kayo sa pag-uwi sa San Diego.
The sisig recipe is just my favorite, paano mo ba nao-order ( heps…), nagagawa yun?
Also, a warm grateful salute to your dear husband Raim for his brave tour of duty in
Iraq in the name of OUR freedom.
Gene and Ruben - thanks for giving up your weekend work to be with us. Somehow this
get-together was different because of your unique "bubbly presence" Sayang at hindi ko
narining si James Ingram this time, konting pilit pa at siguro sa next chance ano?
Billy and Rading - T Y rin and you made the long drive from the Bay area.
Billy, katakam-takam talaga yung giant oysters na dala mo, pero kahit gusto ko pa,
ubos na. Malas lang talaga ang late-comers gaya ko. Rading- all I can tell you is if
at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Para lang naman kayo mag-kapitbahay diyan
sa Silicon Valley.
To all my ever dearest friends - Gerry and Tina, Amee, Conch, Dennis, Grace - I hated that
I was the last one to arrive at 9 pm pero kahit saglit ay feel-na-feel ko ang galak to see you
all again.
Dennis - when and where is the next round? Ron - baka pwede mo pang i-freezer yung natira natin
dahil malapit na rin ang kasunod na get together.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
