Gene and Reuben,

Thanks so much for hosting the feb 12 get-together.
Me, my wife and kids ay nag-enjoy talaga. You have a very nice house.
Grabe and ganda ng design mula frontyard hanggang to the very cozy backyard.
Pang party talaga. And the cold night is no match with your heavy duty outdoor
heaters.

I really had a very good time once again with you batchmates. And thank you for
singing a Happy B-day to me, with blow the candles pa. Will not forget this.
Nadagdagan na naman ng isang taon ang age ko. Di bale, number lang yan. Just enjoy
at sumama na lang tayo pag meron get-together. Masaya at puro tawanan.

Vix, Boots, Pabs, and Leo Goddard - from out of state, impressed kami at sumaya ang
gabi with your presence.

Pabs, it was really good to see you. Enjoy kami sa kwento mo. Ano nga ba yung
lesson of the day? Di bale alam ng boys. Pre, tinalo mo ko sa talong kontes.
sino ba nagbigay ng talong sa kin. eh baluktot.

Leo - as always, kwela ka pre and very talented.
kayang-kaya mo palang lumakad with high heels, at panglaban pala ang boses mo.
galing mo kumanta.

Gabby - good to see again. akala ko ikaw mananalo sa high heels best walking contest
kung hindi ka lang natumba. palagay ko me deperensya yung floor, hindi pantay.

Rene - pre hindi ko na nabawi yung pang-gas ko. wala kasing shooting. di bale meron poker.

Gerry - good to see you again and Tina. yung balato ko sa poker. di ba nanalo tayo?
next time na lang uli.

Ron - Buti kasama mo si Luz. Nag-enjoy ang mga misis natin. i will take note when is
the next party. kanino nga ba...is it kina R__y?

Jimmy V - nice talking to you. you have full of energy. you can really dance on the
floor kahit pahiga...

Chem Molina - thanks for the greetings. sana nakasama ka sa party. also, hinahanap
ka ni Leo G.

Dennis - ang always maasahan sa reunion. champion ka.
basta wag ka lang sasali uli sa high heels walking contest. good to see you and Ella.

Jojo Moreno - hanga na kami parati sa yo. ikaw na ngayon ang parating late umuwi.
meron bang kumuha ng susi mo sa kotse?

Jane - hindi na ko makasingit para makausap ka, kasi si Ever parating forever nakadikit
sa yo. ok lang, basta always smiling ka naman.

Conch, Monette, and the rest - really a nice gathering with you again...and

"Happy Valentines" to all!

Billy & Anabelle and kids

Hep, hep, ba't puro yata mga boyz ang mabilis magpasalamat sa ating
butihing at muy especial na hosts (Gene and Reuben) from Saturday's
get together. So officially I am the voice from the Girls Dept and
to tell you, it was really fun for all of us ladies just as well.
Salamat for the out-of-towners who squeezed us in their sched and
made a trip just for this event, Vix, Boots and Pabs. Though far in-
between kung tayo ay magkasama-sama, enjoy talaga coz you are all so
wonderful personalities.
What can I say, Gene and Reuben's exceptional home was really so apt
to celebrate the feast of Valentine's (also Billy's 30th bday
bash), every nook and corner was so romantic and with the company of
great friends, delicious treats, live entertainment ( singing,
dancing and really fun games), everything was just perfect.

I end my memories of last weekend with a thought, kailan kaya ang
susunod?

Thank you so much Gene & Reuben for a wonderful & warm (sangkatutak ang heater
sa kanilang garden) evening filled with laughter, great conversations, delicious
food & drinks, group dancing, karaoke, parlor games & poker.

Everyone had a great time that evening – tanggal yun amin stress sa trabaho
and we are now rejuvenated to face the rigors of our daily lives.
That evening we also discussed and agreed on another project – this is apart
from the Scholarship project that we are currently supporting. The Teachers’
Emergency Fund was launched that night and Noel Martinez will be discussing
this in details in his state of the yahoogroup speech. Our beautiful
treasurer Vix Bassi will be collecting for North America and we thank you
for your continued support of our Class75 projects. It has been our reunion
potluck practice that anyone attending would share whatever amount/goodies
for the food and drinks expenses and that night Gene donated the whole
collection to our two projects. We again thank you for this very noble gesture.

Nga pala, there were 2 special guests that night – si John Gaddi at si Nicky Gealogo.
You won’t recognize these 2 batchmates so wait ‘till you see the photos and judge
for yourselves. As for the photos, dahil hindi digital yun camera ko eh medyo
matatagalan ang posting so for those with digital cameras that night, please post
them. Kung masyadong malaki ang file sizes, you can send them to me and I’ll
reduce the size. Use either dennis.filoteo@gmail.com or dennis.filoteo@dhl.com.

Again our thanks to all who attended – we love to see you again and again. Sa
mga hindi naka-attend, we hope to see you in the next reunion. Special thanks
to our batchmates who traveled far to attend this reunion – Pabs Cartagena
from Vancounver, Canada, Leo Goddard ( Pennsylvania), Boots Hidalgo (Michigan),
Vix Bassi (Chicago), Gerry, Tina & Kit Tan (Las Vegas, Nevada), Billy,
Annabelle, Christian & Michelle Osit (Hayward, California), Hermie & Marissa
Garcia (San Diego, CA) and of course sa mga taga Los Angeles area ie.
Ron, Luz, Kyle, Kean & Ashley Relucio, Rene & Julie Dimapasok, Jojo Moreno,
Vicky Violan, Noel Martinez & partner Ric, Jimmy, Leslie & Daniel Valena,
Gabby Dizon, Jane Balbuena & beau Ever, Conch Valguna and the
sultry Ms Monette Ferrer. Thanks to several guests – Goody Malinao(’74)
, Marianne, Obet & Leny (’81).

Gene & Reuben - Thank you so much for offering your wonderful garden as the
site of our reunion! I swear the ambience, the people and the food were top of
the line. I had a really great time and yes, one of these days I'll stay much
longer and spend more time with you and Reuben. Hmmm, maybe saling pusa ako
next time in one of your european trips.

Noel & Rick - And thanks for hosting moi! You have a really wonderful place and
another great garden complete with fireplace (haven't seen that anywhere!). I
do miss your little Angel - one of the sweetest pup I have ever met. As you
know, I am one of those who runs away from man's best friend. Thanks also for
the goodies - my kids thoroughly enjoyed the mango cake - really fluffy daw and
wants to know if there is a chocolate version and do they ship it!

Padre D & Ella - You two deserve the Lifetime Achievment Award for this batch.
Without Dennis's dedication and Ella's patience, we probably have disintegrated
a long time ago. Thanks for always pulling the group together.

Boots - I wish we could have spent more time together but I was happy I got to
see you at least. I'll call you - maybe we could have a mini-reunion in the
midwest!

Pabs - What can I say! Walang kupas ang charm and boses mo.

Gabby - Mr. D.I., next time I'll try to be in shape first before I even attempt
to dance with you. After 10 minutes, I thought I was going to get a heart
attack :)!

Jane - We didn't get to spend a lot of time with you but that's okay - as long
as we know you are happy (forever and ever) - that's all that really matters.

Billy and Annabelle - Happy birthday uli to the whole family. It was nice
seeing you both again. Annabelle - next time pag nagyaya ng umuwi si Billy,
eh, paunahin mo na para tuloy ang ating karaoke session!

Gerry and Tina - It was nice seeing my Chicago compatriots! Are you sure you
don't want to go back to the freezing weather of Chicago? So when is the next
Las Vegas get together?

And to the rest of my schoolmates and their significant others - it was worth
the trip to LA to see y'all again! Until next time!

Take care,
Vix

Hello everyone!
Thank you so much for a wonderful time. It is always great to see dear friends.
I was bummed that I had to leave early but am grateful to Gene and Reuben for
making it possible for me to stay a little longer. Reuben, thank you so much
for taking me to the airport and I always love and appreciate our very inspirational
talk. I miss you and Gene already. I'm back in LA since Monday but have been
doing the vacation thing with my daughter so have not been able to catch up with
anyone from LA. I look forward to August....

Special thanks to Gabby for the dance. I haven't danced since the last reunion
in Las Vegas so it was quite refreshing to shake, shake, shake again (he he he).
By the way, my daughter and I did the Warner Brothers studio tour in Burbank.
Aren't you in Burbank?

Rene, Leo and Vicky and of course the "better half" of other batchmates - nice
meeting you guys for the first time. Hope to see you again in other reunions.

Pabs, Jane, Vix, Noel, Ron, Jojo, Monette, Goody, JD, Sha, Gerry, Conch, Billy,
Gabby, Gene and my bro Dennis - nice seeing you all again!

Miss you guys!
Boots
