Casa Angela Memories in the Afternoon of February 9, 2025

Image
  After a brief respite from the sentimental journey through the town of San Fernando Pampanga, we devoted the rest of the day for a much-anticipated class '65 reunion. Oly generously offered their renovated ancestral home, Casa Angela, as our venue. It is a beautifully decorated home with a large outdoor space for our affair. I was quite gutsy to offer to host, ie, emcee. Selfishly, I had several fond memories of being the emcee for our convocations and school concerts at St. Cecilia's Hall and I wanted to have another chance of doing it for our class. I called on Oly to do the welcome address followed by Chit's acknowledgement of Class'65's participation in the Centennial Celebration. We offered prayers for our class before we lined up to a genuinely delicious buffet of Capampangan fare sponsored by the balikbayans. Judging from the classmates' excitement and exclamations of delight, the lunch was well-received and enjoyed. The program re-started with an...

Memorable Lunch at Sumbingco's Residence Feb. 11, 2025

Image
Edna and Alma picked me up from the hotel to drive to Chris Sumbingco's residence at Corinthian Gardens.   We joined a small group of classmates who came earlier and were in the midst of a most delicious lunch.  Some of them were so enthused eating the crabs, they resorted to using their fingers, justifiably so, to eat.  Nonetheless, we were welcomed with shrieks of joy, beso-beso's and hugs.   Ever the gracious host, Chris directed us to a buffet table of a n extraordinarily delicious home-prepared lunch of crabs, shrimps, munggo, hito at buro, adobong baka and my most favorite, pindang damulag. What a treat this was and the feeling of bonding, gratitude to be able to be with each other again was overwhelming, to say the least. After the excellent lunch, Chris put on some music to dance the calories away. I played my Spotify playlist of the music of the '60's that transported us back to our carefree days and we danced without inhibitions. Everyone join...

A Visit to David-Peczon Library in Mexico, Philippines Feb. 10, 2025

Image
In 2024, the patriarch of our family, Dr. Jose Peczon, informed us that the computers in the David-Peczon Library located at the Mexico Elementary School in Mexico, Pampanga, were stolen.  Our son, Allan, offered to donate 20 desktop computers.  Excitedly, his sons, Kai, George, Simon and Delfin packed the computers in 4 balikbayan boxes which we freight forwarded to the Philippines.  Our cousin, Ben Peczon, received them.  With the help of a technical person and donations for the keyboards and monitors, the library and the elementary school have working computers for the students to use. I arranged a visit with the school's principal, Teresa Gutierrez, for Feb. 10, 2025.  Early in the morning, Allan's Philippine-based staff drove several hours from Bicol and Batangas to meet me at Microtel Hotel in San Fernando, Pampanga.  Lileth "Let" Gonzales and Clarisse de las Alas, together with Let's husband agreed to give me a ride to Mexico.  My brother, Rico ...
