Class 58 members, where are you?
This photo is dated May 1958, month after our High School graduation night. The name of the school was still RIZAL ACADEMY then under the ownership of the founder, Mr. Luis V. Eleazar.
The picnic was a bitter sweet one, because it was the end of high school innocence, good-bye Asingan to many except those who opted to stay behind due to financial difficulties or other personal reasons.
But no one can deny that high school days are the best time to forge friendships or explore LOVE and try to find out what it is all about. Some of us are also trying to figure out what College course would be the most suitable for each individual.
I do not know all of the persons in the photo. I am just naming the ones I know.
1. Nestor Villanueva. He took up BSCommerce and he is now in LA.
2. Me.
3. Ester Costes, now Mrs. Lomboy a stalwart faculty member ( up to now ) of the PSU, Asingan campus.
4. Cora Tendero Mabesa, my first cousin. She is now in Chula Vista, San Diego. She is a Medical Technologist here, the same career she had at the Notre Dame Hospital, Baguio City.
5. Purita Palma Dagang ( I hope I have the correct married name ). She is now the President of an Asingan Association in California.
6. Erlinda de Castro. I can not remember her marital name. Nor her whereabouts.
7. Aurora Costes-Nikolof..Now a retiree here in Toronto living near our house.
8. Minerva Palisoc. She is now in Florida. She resides in the neighbourhood of Fred Rodillas who sometimes contribute some photos to the AJ.
9. Cesar Alejo. He was a good friend of Nestor Villanueva. He has a golden voice and a very engaging, friendly personality.
Guys, try to come home for our next town Fiesta, 2009. Don't you love to see one another?.
--Vic
