The name Romulo sent a flood of memories rushing in of Ambassador Romulo  
(what was his first name - also started with R, I think) speaking at 2  
assemblies at my high school - Midland (TX) H.S. He was an extremely  
inspirational speaker, and expanded my context exponentially.

Jon,  if you do have a copy I could borrow, this time I would definitely 
make  photocopies before returning it.  Would love to have a copy and share it 
 with Ginger Hansen Holmes, who, as I mentioned, was born in Mindanao. Her 
mom  was a gorgeous Mestiza.  Ginger (Virginia) was about 3 or 4 years old  
when the Japanese invaded the Philippines.  She lives nearby and we are  
both life members (and I am former president) of the Association of Philippine  
American Women (APAW), founded in 1947 by Mrs. Romulo (wife of the first  
Ambassador of the Republic of the Philippines to the U.S.) and her friend  
Trini Legarda.  Ginger’s husband, Kent, is in the process of completing a  
book about my uncle, Wendell Fertig, who led the guerrillas on Mindanao.   I 
know they’d love to see your grandfather’s book—it would likely give Kent  
some details about Mindanao in WWII that he doesn’t have, despite all his  
research.
