" I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, one's own family or nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace". Dalai Lama I come from a number of family branches filled with wonderful people!

Lolo Milong, Uncle Junior and Dad Elliott
Lolo Milong and Daddy
Lolo Milong and Uncle Junior
Uncle Junior and Daddy
Lolo Milong and his friend Man Yanong Nuneza
Like I said before, I knew very little about him. I visit his grave at Mt. Olivet Cemetery twice a year and have conversations with his spirit. I always tell him how much Lola loved him and how she missed him. He died in November, 1953.
I thought I would post some of the pictures that Jewel Nuneza sent me. I am forever grateful to her for sharing these photos. I hope and pray that we would connect face to face one day. There is so much I would like to know about Lolo Milong.
Apparently Man Yanong Nuneza was one of Lolo Milong's best friends. He lived with the Nuneza family for a long time until he died.
All three - Lolo Milong, Daddy and Uncle Junior are now gone - I do miss them, miss what was and who they were to me and what might have been - if our stories had a differnt plot.

You are too funny - I understand he was quiet a looker and a good dresser.
can't believe we are actually talking to each other this way!
Love to all!
unfortunately, i am unable to take after the good dresser part. eeekk!!
i think Oyang has her father's smile. i wonder if lola bette would agree with me....
Can't really say - Tia Geline very seldom smiled or laughed in my memory - she was always angry about something - when she decided to come to Catmon - Lola was always warning me about not doing things to make her mad. They were always arguing - about me among other things. Lola's drinking bothered her a lot - while I had to live with it for better or for worse until I went to college.
