RIP Batchmate MInda Tapales

It is with sadness that we note the passing away of our batchmate Minda Tapales last Wednesday night after having been discharged from the UE RM Medical Center. She was confined briefly for ovarian cancer at said hospital but relatives were subsequently advised to take her home.  This was Abe Espiritu's post at the RMCHS Batch 70 Group at fb: "it is a very sad day... nais ko pong ipaabot ang balita na ang ating batchmate na si Minda Tapales Macarista ay sumakabilang buhay na ngayong gabi... sa lahat po ng mga tumulong sa pamamagitan ng panalangin at tulong pinansyal maraming maraming salamat po sa inyong lahat... napakabuti po ng inyong puso kahit na si Minda ay hindi nyo personal na nakilala... patuloy po na pagpalain kayo ng ating Panginoon na nakikita ang inyong mabuting kalooban... pipilitin ko po na magbigay pa ng mga updates later... again thanks so much for all you support..." Minda is now in a place with no pain. Godbless Minda.

A Call for Help

Image
To Our Dear Batch70, Our batchmate, Minda Tapales is currently confined at the UE RM Medical Center because of ovarian cancer. The doctors informed her daughter Nini that Minda would need an operation immediately. Minda needs financial support to cover her initial confinement fees including diagnostic/medical/laboratory expenses; not to mention the cost of her operation. At this point the amount that needs to be settled immediately is in the vicinity of Php25,000.00 afterwhich, she can be transferred to the Charity Ward. Abe Espiritu who volunteered to coordinate the Call for Help efforts, including the 2010-2012 former Batch Officers led by Manny Palafox, have so far raised P8,500.00. Today, Joe Apostol also contributed Php4K plus US$100.00. Contributions were also received from batch mates who want to remain anonymous. Please batch mates, we would like to appeal for your assistance. Any amount that's comfortable will be deeply appreciated. Please send...

Something to mark a special day for a special person! Dahil wala ka sa fb these days dito na lang :-)

A Loving Tribute: Thank You Mr. Palafox

By Chelit Bataclan (4/2012) Friday, March 24th, promises to be another sunny day and the weather is fine.   The sky is blue, until what looks like rain clouds hovering above.   Suddenly, lo and behold it was a heavy downpour in March!  What luck!   Some parts of Metropolis get flooded easily and the inevitable traffic can be so bad, the usual scenario when the ground is drenched with water.   I wonder if people will come but at the same time bursting with hope that they all will. We have whipped up a farewell party for a special person. We didn’t have enough time to plan and prepare so I was hopeful we could pull this through, even if I considered it duck soup.  And thank God we did!  It turned out to be one memorable, pleasant and enjoyable despedida for that someone we were honoring, and for everyone concerned as well. It was a good number of attendees who brought appetizing dishes, cakes, pastries, wine and soda pop. ...
