Send-Off Luncheon for Virgie Nadado and son Alex
On Friday, May 29, 2009, Maris and Bernie Mercado hosted a luncheon send-off for Virgie Nadado, the wife of Architect Benjie Nadado. And of course, a Pinoy gathering wouldn't be complete without the 'sing-along' - Filipinos almost always have very good singing voices. Our regulars - Sheen, Gel, Julius, Lolit, Kat, Sherwin, Ric, Bernie & Bernie, Renz, Lito, Sr. Ortencia, sr. Mary -Grace among others and new discoveries - James and Donald.
Some pictures are shown below:
