hi Mr.Keith,
Recognized your name.. because Ms. Patricia was our Modern Math teacher in Bukidnon Provincial High School in 1st yr high school then, my classmates were Zeny Asuncion & Joy Ruth Isidro..recall you were living in the Cudal Cpd by the Baptist church where these friends of mine were too. You & Ms Pat had a great influence on us kids. with you I remember Thomas Weaver who was one of PCVs n Bukidnon too.He was my 6th grade Math Teacher in Valencia Elementary School and a good family friend. I tried to look for him initiallym but could not find any link.. In case you get in touch with him pls give my regards. All the best to you and Ms Pat & your family.. this is Pearlie Pasco - Portugal
