MORE COMMENT ABOUT JUNE 9, 2013 OFCC CONVENTION

MORE COMMENTS ABOUT THE OFCC CONVENTION JUNE 9, 2013====FROM REV ALEX VERGARA Hi Kabsat Amado, You have just led me through memory lane. Thank you for refreshing my memory of Mario Abinsay Albalos. You were both so youthful and full of guts and promises. I remember Mario and you getting into a friendly debate several times. You mentioned just a few respected mentors. They served our community well. I'm sure you also mingled with other remarkable people, namely: James Misajon, JO and Ines Cayaban, Roland Sagum, Don Alvarez...Rev. Joe Lazo...Don't forget Ambassador Minerva Jean Falcon, Ambassador Trinidad Alconcel and other Filipino diplomats. Your former pastor, the Rev. Quintero is also on my mind. Say hello to my good friend - Most Reverend Albano...========================================== This is all for now. Brother, we may be looking back with smile as well as trepidation. We also have to move forward as we enjoy our sunset years. I was so glad to see Jake Manegneg and Nash Torres still kicking and screaming...I love them both. Good for you -- gardening and harvesting the fruits of your labor. I bet you have a pretty spacious yard. I need to visit your home and learn from you regarding vegetable gardening. You also wrote a screenplay some years back. We were supposed to make it come alive. Were you ever to find your material?

I would consider myself in your company as a new shoot similar to a very special fern for the Native Hawaiians. I took this photo at the Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island a few weeks ago and it symbolizes a new beginning as well as nurturing from the whole plant. As you already know, this fern has many uses... For us Filipinos, we've got our "pakpako"... and from the ocean, we've got the " pukpuklo" (both nourishing to the body). Enjoy lifeand enjoy what we say and do.
