SEQUE

Today he turns 96 years old A War Time Hero... Veteran of the Second World War, Leader of the Signal Corps Unit that brought the destruction of an entire fleet of Japanese ships that led to the end of the Japanese occupation. A Businessman who has a very sharp foresight and very wise when it comes to his investments. A Father who has faithfuly met the needs of all of his children. A Grandfather who lovingly looks after his grandkids in a most magnanemous manner. A Benevolent Boss, Uncle and Patriarch of our clan. He is fondly called Seque by his fellow veterans, relatives and friends. As for me he will always be "Papa", who made me sit on his lap when I was young and walked me through the fields of our farm, brought me to watch the afternoon matinees at a local movie theater and encouraged me to find my own spiritual answers to life. When he found out about my conversion he told me these words which I remember so vividly "Your belief is your choice, let no one dictate to you otherwise. Son, follow your convictions." I just spoke to him a few minutes ago, I could sense from his voice how much he longs to see his youngest and only son again and how he regrets not having me around to celebrate his birthday with him.

Lord willing I will see you soon Papa... Happy Birthday and I love you so much.

Listen to your FATHER who begot you. And do not despise your mother when she is old.

Proverbs 23:22
