Spring 2000: Raul Leopando


Sorry guys, I just read your forwarded e-mails.  I have been going around
Connecticut and Boston and were not able to update on your e-mails.

Larry, if you are still in New York, call us up at 914-761-7587.  I will
be in Manhattan on April 5 & 6.

I will be in San Francisco on April 17.

       Subject: annual family trip
 

           After reading several regular mails, e-mails and documents in
the office, I am usually too tired when I get home and I could not read my
e-mail at home anymore.  But now that I am preparing for my family's annual
vacation in the USA, I was able to read some of the e-mails at home.
           So some Pep 66 classmates will also be in the US this summer.
Manny Canillas, Jess Lucas and EQ Pablo.  I am leaving tomorrow (March 27)
for San Francisco. I will be in SFO for two days.  I will be looking at a
resort project, near Napa Valley and Sonoma Resort.  I'll have the chance
to savor the famous California wine.  March 29, I will be in New York,
which will be my base while in the USA.  I will be staying in White Plains
NY.  I will go to New Jersey on March 30to watch the NBA.  We will be
visiting the Universities in the area of NY (Columbia, NYU, Fordham), NJ
(Princeton), Philadelphia (Wharton) and Connecticut (Yale) because my
eldest daughter and son (out of my six children) will be taking up their
Masters degree.  April 8, we will go to Washington DC and will stay there
for three days.  April 11, we will go to Chicago to visit my sister Rowena
(Prep 65).  I recall one of our teachers in Prep, Mrs. Tuano, is my other
sister's patient.  I will try to get in touch with her.  We will visit
University of Chicago and Northwestern University.  April 18, I'll be back
in San Francisco.  My telephone no. in New York is 914-761-7587 and the
e-mail address is [email protected] .  My no. in Chicago is 630-655-2547
or 847-255-3612 while my e-mail address is [email protected] .
           Anyone who will be in those places on the said dates can get in
touch with me so that we can get together.

           Since I just read all the mails accummulated for several months,
let me send the following messages:

           - To Liz Plana and Hamilton Mangonon - my family's paryers and
condolences

           - To EQ and Ed Umali - Congrats on your fast recovery from your
operation/illness.  I also had my operation last September 1999.

           - To Manny - The stock market is not really all that bad.  The
speculatives being converted to IT stocks are still doing well.

           I guess all of us are getting old specially when we start
talking of retirement.  If EQ has retired,  I am also considering an early
retirement  soon.

           Regards to all.

       Raul
