Dear
Friends,
The
100th year Anniversary celebration should be celebrated as a unit or
separate from the School.
I
suggest that we plan a parallel celebration, starting now.
Join
with the one morning celebration at the Mount and in the evening our
celebration.
Of
course include a week of possible reunions should be promoted,
specially for out of the country oldboys.

RE: TRINI VISIT
Hi
Kazim,
Thanks
so much for sharing,
Hoping
there will be many more pictures so we can also enjoy our the good
tmes our Brothers are sharing together.
It
gives me a great sense of togetherness to enjoy through the pictures
what great fun they are all having during this truly great and I
guess once in a lifetime reunion.
Just
sorry I couldn't be there with them, but happy for them all the same.
Thanks,
Cornelius

Hi
George,
We
had a wonderful time in Trinidad.
Our
hosts treated us to a varied and exciting weekend.
I
discovered, if I had not known it before, that I don't understand how
to use my camera properly.
However,
I attach one of the photos so you can see what a wild west time we
had!
This
is us fishing off the north coast on Sunday!
I
am sure that Ladislao will circulate much more interesting ones in
the weeks to come.
Maybe
he will post some Circulars that are just pictures.
There
is no need for a lot of words in every Circular.
Remember
what they say about the worth in words of one picture?
Keep
well.
Don

Best

Hello,
Kazim.
Man,
we're all thinking of you and praying that you'll come out of this
trial with renewed courage and hope.
I
trust that you're feeling a little better with each passing day.
We
missed you at David Johnson's Reunion Part last Saturday, but of
course we understood your situation and why you couldn't be there
with us.
May
God be with you, my friend.
Hoping
and praying,
Nigel

Greetings
All
Let
me also add my concerns and prayers for a quick and full recovery for
our brother Kazim.
The
Good Lord is telling him something and has gained our attention and
support too.
These
are positive moments to reflect and be thankful that Kazim is still
with us and will come out of this stronger and more focused.
I
speak from direct similar experience and am a better person for it..
It
has also brought us all closer together which will make him very
happy I am sure.
And
us too, of course!

I
am adding my prayers to those of yours as Matthew tells us “For
where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them."
Jesus
is with Kazim and all of us as we ask the Father to heal his loving
son,
Kazim.

Kazim needs our prayers.
My
Dear Brothers,
I
just got a phone call from our brother Kazim.
He
had a stroke last Thursday, he is speaking now, slowly, he will be in
the hospital until further notice, I will be speaking with him
tomorrow.
I
told him I will inform our brothers of the situation and we must keep
our brother Kazim in our prayers for a good recovery, thank God he is
in good spirits.
he
said this number may change in a few days.
Kazim's
sister is with him, this is all I can say at the moment, will talk to
him again tomorrow, I am sad to share this news and pray his
condition will improve in due course.
Your
Faithfully
Glen
McKoy.

Tengo
que agradecerte el tiempo que dedicaste a hablar conmigo para tratar
de incluirme entre los contactos de los viejos estudiantes del The
Abbey School.
Cuando
me llamaste pensé que estabas llamando a mi hermano Winston Cabello
quien estuvo estudiando 1ro, 2do y 3er Año, también mi primo Miguel
Ángel estuvo un año mas que hermano.
Yo
apenas estuve estudiando el 1er Año y de verdad que los amigos que
tenia están la mayoría en Caripe, Edo Monagas quienes estuvieron en
ese Colegio mucho tiempo y los veo de ves en cuando estoy de
vacaciones.
En
estoy momentos estoy dedicado a mi familia, trabajo y la parte
espiritual casi que no me dejan tiempo para más nada, mas aun cuando
no domino el idioma Ingles bien.
De
todas maneras gracias por todo y que tenga el mejor de los éxitos en
la organización que pretendes realizar.
Saludos.
Ladislao:
I have to thank you for the the time that you have dedicated to speak
with me, trying to include to me between the contacts of the old
students of the The Abbey School.
When
you called to me I thought that you were calling to my Winston
brother, who studied Form 1, 2 and 3, also my cousin Miguel Angel who
was one more year than brother.
I
was only did study Form 1, and my friends were mainly from Caripe Edo
Monagas, who were in School for a longer time. I see them once in a
while when I am on vacations.
At
this time I am dedicated to my family, work and the spiritual part, I
have almost no time for anything, but even though I do not dominate
the Ingles language well.
Anyway
thanks for everything and that you have successes in the organization
which you try to make. Greetings.

Dear
Ladislao,
Just
to give you an update, Mr. Bernard Tappin (1961) contacted me today
and he is assisting in contacting more old boys that he knows. I
tried making contact with Dr. Bratt, however all I'm getting is his
office voice mail. I left a message there but did not get a response.
I will try again on Monday, but if you have a home contact number for
him please let me know. Again it seems that we are getting a strong
response from the older boys and I feel it is very important while
they are only now coming on board their input into this event would
be most welcomed and I'm using this forum to invite any suggestions
these distinguished gentlemen may have to offer.
Thanks
again for your assistance.
Ps:
this circular is copied to the members of the reunion committee
please
feel free to add their names to your circular if you do not have them
already.
God
bless,

Dear
Leonard,
I
have received information on our contact with Fr. Abbot, and we are
making diligence to have the rest of the old boys informed,
unfortunately time is against us.
Miguel
has been receiving the circulars since March but he never mentioned
any event. I mention this because Salvador Coscarart informed me of
his address and the planned? event. I would have helped your cause
but lacked the information that I published recently.
I
have retained the circular No. 90 waiting for this confirmation, so
tonight it
goes
out with the necesary haste.
If
you want me to send the circular to your friends or those you think
should get it, please send me their emails.
God
Bless
LAdislao

Ladislao,
I'll
do my best.
I
have found a few others in TT like Peter Boos (1957)
I
sent a request for a ticket direct to the Abbot but have heard
nothing so far.
If
I hear nothing I will just show up on the Sunday.
I
leave in a few days for London.
Take
care
Jon

Dear
Jon,
I
hope you have bought rolls of film or new batteries for the digital
camera.
Please
send me the photos of the event so that I may include them in the
circular.
Of
course individual photos of the guys that we knew would be
appreciated.
Please
make propaganda for the circular, we need new guys in the listing, I
am sure most are not in the list and of course I do not have their
emails.
I
hope you meet additional friends, other than those that you already
met.
Maybe
someone knows about Bro. Vincent, PG. Wilson ( there is nothing in
the internet)
Also
please ask Fr. Cuthbert for the address of Fr. Paul and Fr. Francis?
He
told me that it was matter of going up to his room!.
Ask
Fr. Benedict if he is getting the circulars, I believe that the
person at the computer is not delivering the circulars.
If
not then I must mail them by snailmail.
God
Bless
Ladislao
