Anonymous said... Is the Dad rudolf ganaden? Just a deduction from the list of our klasmeyts from LU.
Dingggg! Not Rudolf Ganaden.
The Ganadens had a photo studio near Llamas Press, near the crossing of Magsaysay Avenue and the road leading to Health Center/Aurora Hill. Our house fronted a mountain side, and a waterfall used to run during the rainy season, flows out into a drainage pipe under the road, and on to our property where a “seasonal” creek was formed: there would be clear mountain rain water running through, and the occasional shed-snakeskin (pinaglupusan iti uleg- that thought still gives me the creeps). That water disappeared when the Ganadens hacked out a part of the mountain and built a house there. That was about the start of the Quirino Hill settlement, where this day, houses are built waaaaaaaaaaaaay up at the top where limestone formations used to be.
But does anyone know his whereabouts? I‘ve checked his name on facebook, skype, online directories (as I occasionally do for other names) but zilch. If you do, please make awis to him to join us for the reunion in 2011.
Rudy L’s entry: A. From the tailor-grandfather, to the father and nephew, they have an unmistaken striking resemblance; so the answer is Vincent/Rodolfo Lambino.
As they say, "parang pinagbiyak na tulya". No need for FR software. Is he “eligible”? I’m sure a lot of moms would like to know!
But let us digress a bit: election time is coming very soon. I am sure you have relatives, friends, foes who will be exercising their democratic institution to vote. How about considering campaigning for, and placing a senator who will represent our Northern Luzon interests, and who has the integrity and intelligence and well-equipped to do so? And not to mention having a relative of a friend in the Senate? Have a look at http://www.raullambino.com/
B.(and C.) He lives and has a law degree in Virginia. Lourdes' mom is Isabel, has a brother-lawyer, and husband's name is Armando. My answer is Armand/Lourdes Bucaycay-Alacbay.
He also passed the bar that year. Amazing that both Ludy and Armand’s kids are lawyers. Ludy’s brother Galeazo the Ateneo Law School graduate, a Baguio legal luminary, was the local chapter president of the Integrated Bar of the Philippines and an avid boxing fan. Unfortunately he met his demise at an early age.
D. Maryann Zarza-F and Eduardo F are definitely from La Union; and never were back in Baguio City since they arrived here in the U.S. - 40 years ago. I assume the son never set foot in his parents' homeland. Floresca was a former councilor of Baguio City. My guess is Edward/Maryann Zarza-Floresca. (I'm not sure about the son's name).
Correct, his name is Neil. Manong Bert Floresca was a long-time city councilor and journalist. Eddie and Bert’s sister, Manang Tita, was a baking expert and one of my Seattle niece’s godmothers. At their Aurora Hill residence, I learned from her what is a Bundt pan; why you have to grease the bottom and sides of the baking pan and other useful baking tips. I still use her recipe for chiffon cake but which I have not done for a long time now. Hope Maryann you'd bring in as many members of your growing family for a long-due Baguio visit! Well worth it, talaga.
I’d appreciate it much if Classmates61 could send photos and/or stories about their children, grandchildren, in-laws, to share in this blog.
