"Let's pray and wish Brod Rudolf de la Rosa '63 speedy recovery!!"
Dear Brods,
I'm sharing with you our visit with Brod Dolf in Salisbury, Maryland on Oct. 21. I have appended Dolf's message and the pictures provided by Eding Hizon, Pet Grajo, Wally Rodriguez and Manny Cayetano on their visits. I had asked Dolf first if this was okay with him, so here they are.
We truly had a wonderful and uplifting experience in seeing Dolf, just chatting the hours away and sharing our Betan brotherhood and fellowship. Wouldn’t it be great if we can all wish him well, especially for those who had known and been with him, as he continues to battle and make progress in his treatment. As Dolf is lacking in medical insurance, please extend whatever caring help you can give. Most important, let's show him our support and keep him in our prayers.
Here are Dolf's personal info:
Home address: 205 Lakewood Drive, Salisbury, MD 21804-7220, USA
Email address:
dolfdelaro@comcast.net
Cell phone: 443-994-9160
My personal regards and thanks to you all.
For the UP Beta Sigma Fraternity International... Norman, cell

P.S. Please also include in your prayers Brods Pete Gatbonton, Ely
Aldana, Pogs Gaspay and Engie de Gracia.
They too are coping with their medical conditions. We wish them
and their families the best.

Hi Dolf,
Below are the pictures from UP
Beta Sigma SoCal and of our get-together in Salisbury.
Our visit - Rolly, Raoul and I
- did as much to our spirit as it did yours. When we left, we were
very happy
for the opportunity to just be together and spend
the time with you like brods of old
recounting stories and memories of the past and
sharing new ones. I'll be sure to extend your
regards and thanks to the SoCal gang.
Give my hello to Eding, Barbara and Kay on their
visit and I hope they find as much fun and
enjoyment as we did. Our thoughts and prayers are
always with you on your next session
on Thursday and every day on your road to
recovery.
Keep getting stronger and putting in those pounds,
Dolf. Kita tayo ulit, 'tol !!
Fraternally... Norman
>From your old gang
in Southern California: Cheers, Cheers and speedy recovery Dolf !!
