The Topacios are on the move

 

Aloha Brods Norman and Tatang,

Hope both you, Sis Cherry and Sis Tess are all well and safe. I am guessing you all have been vaccinated and are included in the 70% of adult Californians vaccinated. Jin and I got fully vaccinated early May.

Thank you for your diligence in keeping our UPBSI website alive and always interesting. In reading the most recent ones, it is truly sad that the news flashes are about our beloved Brods passing away. As we all get older, I guess these just resonate that famous quote of Benjamin Franklin that "in this world nothing can be said to be certain except for death and taxes."

I am reaching out because I would like to share two good news which I'm hoping you will consider as newsworthy to be featured in our website.

 

Salamat Brothers for allowing me "na magbuhat ng sariling bangko" as they would say sa Pilipinas. LOL!

I wish you both and your families all the best and continued good health. Sana makabisita kami sa CA soon kapag medyo humupa na ang Pandemic.

Cheers!

Yay Topacio

News No. 1:


I recently got promoted from Sr. Manager to Vice-President - Retail Management (see attached email announcement from our President) and in honor of the Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month I was featured for the June JLL Newsletter.

 

 



News No. 2:

My eldest son and our Brod, Dr. Luigi Mari V. Topacio, was commissioned as Captain of the U.S. Army Veterinary Corps on April 29. The U.S. Army Veterinary Corps is a staff corps (non-combat specialty branch) of the U.S. Army Medical Department (AMEDD) consisting of commissioned veterinary officers and Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) veterinary students. Luigi arrived here in Honolulu last night for a two week vacation before heading to Oklahoma for his officer's training camp on June 22. He will then go to San Antonio, TX for more training and then finally to Fort Benning, GA where he will be stationed until he receives an assignment. Please see attached photos.
