An email was sent by Perlie to announce the upcoming committe meeting in May.  It will be held in the resort of Mercedez Conejos in Laguna.  Please share a ride.   Click on the link to get Perlie, Evelyn and Edna's phone number if you would like to arrange for a ride or is willing to give ride to others.  Have a fun meeting!!!

   Here are more shots on the March California mini-reunion.... moments captured from the video.  That's the one day in our lives that we will always treasure and remember.  The laughter, jokes and stories goes on in our minds.

   Three buddies are showed up last month.  Fr. Erick found Ahmee Fabula Aquino. Penn has been contacted by Milagros Vacarro...hopefully she will call again. And Felix sent some pictures of Celia Tanafranca Carrillo. We are trying to get more info from Celia and Ahmee.  Click on the link for more stories/pictures or initial details on our buddies for the month.
 

  This section will demonstrate to us the buddy system in our batch.  It is people helping people.  Do you need to find a buddy?  Send your "Buddy to Buddy" request to your geographic contacts.
 

   "about our website, i would suggest that we should also put a corner for our batchmates who already passed away so everybody will also be aware and we can also offer prayers for their souls, what do you think?"  - Philip
 

   As suggested by Perlie and in line with our goal to help our batchmates in our little ways, we present this new section of our website dedicated to helping our batchmates who lost their jobs.  If you are aware of any job placements for them please contact one of us. Thanks.

   Can you make out who these boy scouts are?  Troop 85 has such a big influence for most of us.  That's where we started the camaraderie and teamworks.... during campings and scout meetings.  Click on the link for a bigger view and captions.

   Please change or add the following email addresses in your list.  Also notify us if your email address changed.  If you know the email address of other batchmates who has not contacted us yet, please let us know and we will contact them.

I admire you for what you are doing for THS batch'78. Thank you for your concern and dedication to gather the batch. Those people in the group especially you, who have been sharing whatever they can so as to make our Silver Jubilee celebration be a memorable and happy one, have given me a pull in the konsyensya. I hope to be able to help too, no matter how little it can be.

Again thank you and I hope you continue doing your great share. If not for  you wala na kaming monthly issue.
