For Lolo Foy on his 90th birthday
October 4, 2012 Dearest Lolo Foy, Happy birthday! You turn 90 years old today and that is, by current standards, no mean feat. I remember that the last time I wrote something like this for you was at your 80 th , when we held a party for you at a function hall in Kamuning, Quezon City. I may have forgotten the name of the place but I remember that we had a tribute for you then as well. Some apo I've turned out to be to have needed ten years to pass by before coming up with something new for you. I have taken you for granted. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. It seems that I have the better end of the deal in our relationship as lolo and apo. I am just glad that I can stand in front of you and the family today to be able to thank you for all that you have done and continue to do for me. But more importantly, I am glad that I can tell you today, in front of every one, that I love you. I am sorry that I have not told you this more often, thinking it&
