We had a small reunion in Ray dela Rosa's home in Burbank in honor of Manolete Navarro who was visiting from Winnipeg Canada. This is the first time I have seen Herbert, Manolete, Alan and Cesar since 1974. The last time I saw them was during graduation night. Hope you enjoy the pictures. --- Raoul

Pepe Reyes and Rod Garcia, both from Lourdes School in Mandaluyong. Batch 72 but they are now honorary Bosconians.

Greetings from the Don Bosco Batch '74 website. I'm sorry we lost contact for a long time. I didn't know we were "off the air" until Lito Adao told me early this month (September 2006). Anyway we had a small reunion Sept 17 because Ed Guzman was here in Los Angeles visiting his parents. Here are some pictures from a mini-reunion in Los Angeles on Sep. 17, 2006.
We were hoping to do this more often. Attention Alan Paet, Ray Daylo, Sol, Tabernilla, Cesar Soria, Ray Santos, Roel Mallari, and anyone else who is in the California area. We wanted to get in touch with you but we did not have your number or it was too short notice. Please contact Raoul.

By the way, if you haven't subscribed to Raoul's TGIF Jokes yet, go to www.tgifjoke.com or please click on the picture below .

There are several Bosconians already part of this Friday mailing list. It's a great way to keep in touch and start thinking about the weekend.

Due to my current workload, I haven't had time to update this website. Fortunately, Ed Guzman has graciously volunteered to help out in the maintenance of this website. I'm sure it will take some time for him to get the hang of this new task so please be patient with him.

For now you may write me at raoulp@arttickles.com or you can join a Don Bosco yahoo group. Please go to:

There are many broken links since I transferred this site to another server. Again, these will be fixed at a later time. Thank you for your patience. --- Raoul Pascual

Welcome Don Bosco High School batch '74 and friends. This site is a venue for all of us from the good ol' days of Mandaluyong traffic. Remember the jeepney routes of Boni, Shaw Boulevard, Quiapo and Cubao? Remember Mr. Tanchangco (si Tanching), Vispaculo, si Bining ("Ikaw talagang bata ka"), Mr. Wilson, Father Mariano Evangelista, Brother Cabrera, Mr. Garcia, Fr. Martinez, Mr. Castillo ("Diyan ka magaling"), Mr. Chang (aka Mr. Stomach)? This site is dedicated to the memories of our youth.

You may also be interested in using this site as a venue to advertise your skills and maybe we Bosconians can drum up some business to help each other— para bang Classified Ads section. If you have something to sell, a service you can render, know of super discounts or opening your home for people travelling in your area of the world.

For the latest news or info about coming events, obituaries, wedding announcements (mayroon pa bang may balak?) click here. This is where I'll post the latest changes to the site.

In the meantime, please send me any interesting thoughts you have, any favorite links (perhaps other sites done by other Bosconians), favorite jokes, favorite memories of Don Bosco days or simply give me feedback as to ways to improve this site.

Click here to send me your photos and articles so I can post it here for all to see.

Please note that I will seek to improve this site and include ALL your comments and pictures when I finish my other priorities. I will do my best to post the latest changes within a week.

Maraming salamat for all the compliments and contributions several of you have sent me. This site has grown to be quite active and is turning out to be what I hoped it would be.
