Ge-rie (aka Brangelina?)

In one of the rare moments that we are able to take
some R & R/have some fun.
Regards,

Hey looking good kids, but why not make it an everyday affair? Don't let fun take a backseat in your life.

And so the story began three or was it four years ago when Gene and Lorie (Ine) packed up with their kids Genny and Gil and left for the States. Genny, a pharmacist, landed a job at Kaiser as a Pharmacy Tech and will now start her PharmD studies while Gil, a Food Technologist by trade, decided to pursue a career in the health care field; he is now a traveling Respiratory Therapist currently working in Florida. I know how heartbroken they were to see their son move out of home from LA. It's called a show of freedom and so you must let him go!

Like many of us who immigrated to the States, the experience is an adventure and the roads may have been a bit bumpy and lonely at the start, but the end is a success story. And theirs is one. I’m proud of you guys.

Gene and Ine are looking forward to their trip to the Phil. this Sept. to visit Liaa and Glenn and their respective families. I imagine they went crazy buying toys and stuff for their apos Carl (Aba), Lukas and ........... you got me, I forgot the name of Liaa’s newborn! Old age creeping up on me guys, forgive me.

Hey kids, plan on spending Christmas here in NY, okay; we miss all of you.
