CHAIRMAN’s MESSAGE TO
TI BATCH ’69 55TH EMERALD REUNION
E-BOOK

Our TI Batch ’69 created again an
affair to remember being together
in our 55 th reunion as we cherish
the memories of our High School
Days in Tanauan Institute. As I said
before, High School days are the
most memorable in our academic
life. It was 55 years ago and we have
gone a long way.
I have seen again your joy when we met each other. The singing, dancing, the
jokes and laughters made our Emerald reunion fun. We had a chance to meet
again some of our teachers and listened to their words of wisdom. Thanks God,
they are still able and strong despite their age.
The more I feel now that we have to do a reunion again in a few years time.
We have to get in touch every now and then. If not face to face, let ‘s utilize more
our group chat.
Again, let me extend my thanks to the “ Core Group”and “Contributors” whose
joint effort in helping me and providing financial support made our 55th Emerald
Reunion possible.
See you again in our next meetings and 60th Diamond Reunion!
It has been 55 years , very long time, since we marched in our graduation attires.
We are very young then as I had my eyes in tears remembering the face of my
proud mother during that time. I know all of you too have memorable moments
during our graduation in 1969.

MESSAGE OF MRS. CARANDANG

Just like your mentors, some of you have reached your senior age. Thank God for
being still alive and kicking just like me. Some feel sad for being old for they feel they
could no longer of service to others. Always remember these lines from "Life is What
We Make It"
Your inviting me in all your reunions fill my heart with joy. It gives me a sense of
self-fulfillment for you acknowledge what we have done in molding your future.
My secrets to a joyful life was being contented with what i have, living a simple life,
having friends to go out with, and enjoying the beauty of nature. My heart dances with
joy when i see flowers in bloom and gentle swaying of the branches of the trees. To be
of service to others , pray for our loved ones and our enemies too. Again, my heartfelt
gratitude. I'll be looking forward to your more reunions. I'll be there.
May the good Lord bless us all!
“Let's often talk of nobler deeds
Mere rarely of the bad ones
And sing about our happy days
And not about the sad ones.
Oh this could be a happy world
To those who may partake it
The fault is ours, if it is not
This life is what we make it.
Some are saddened because of lack of material possessions.
Think of these lines:
Lord give me the light to see
That the most beautiful things I'll ever have
Are those which I have right now.”
