Hi, Dr Laquis,
Wonderful photo,
How good to hear
news of Mr Yip Chuck’s progeny. I remember him well, standing outside of
the class waiting to enter at the bell, his head always surrounded by a cloud
of cigarette smoke.
I had no idea he had
a family, as I was very young at the time.
If you see her
again, please let her know that in the view of his students, her father was a
brilliant man.
Sincerely,
Don

Pud,
How nice of you to
think of me, in connection with Mr. Yip Chuck’s daughter. It’s a small, small
world, innit?
Of course I’ll send
this off to the guys whose email addresses I still have, and who might remember
the old man.
Thanks very much for
your kind gesture. Regards to you and your family.
Nigel

Hey guys,
Pud has asked me to
send this picture of himself with Mr. Anthony Yip Chuck’s daughter, who he met
recently. You might remember Mr. Yip Chuck as our Science Teacher at MSB.
Best wishes.
Nigel

Hi Nigel,
Hope all is well
with you and your family.
I had a meeting
today with the GM of investments and services of Republic Bank.
During the meeting I
asked her if she knew a Mr. Yip chuck who taught at MSB.
It, in fact, was her
father-first name Anthony, taught the science subjects
Died in 1986 at age
60 of lung cancer (he smoked).
I found a photo of
him with some of the boys and she confirmed that he was indeed the same person.
You may circulate if
you wish.
Regards,
Pud.

Hello Ladislao,
First of all thanks
a lot for having sent me various "Mount" circulars.
I've enjoyed reading
every one of them and now I would like to participate more actively in the MSB
circular mailing.
If you wish I can
also send you in the near future a short rundown of my activities since I left
Mount (1957) and since I left Caracas (1975). (I am eagerly awaiting your
rundowns).
I have had, of
course, contact to various Mount boys during all these years, and as I had been
flying over regularly to Caracas till the year 2000 (when my mother died).
I've had the luck to
be able to meet personally many of my old and closest friends as Urbano de
Fedak, Azier Atela , Isaias Farcheg, Ricardo Figuera, Roberto Lipavsky, Pedro
Castro etc.
Now that I haven't
been travelling to Venezuela for a couple of years, this new communication
method is in a way an excellent substitute to keep in touch with the old gang.
Besides that, now
I'll have more time available for personal pleasures of this kind, first of all
because my children have now become independent (my daughter Christine, 25 got
married in June and my oldest son Gabor, 31 has set up his own company in
Budapest and my youngest son Peter, 29 graduated from the University of
Heidelberg.
Secondly, I'll be
retiring at the end of May 2003 and right after we'll be moving to Spain, (next
to Valencia) where we had bought an apartment some years ago.
I am closely
following with anxiety the daily happenings of Venezuela and am very worried
about what the future will bring.
Over here it's no
cake walk either but nothing comparable to what you're having over there.
I would like to wish
you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year and please
count on me for the future.
If you have any kind
of "collective e-mail address list" of the Mount boys I'll be much
obliged if you send it to me.
Un abrazo
Csaba

Ladislao,
I live in the
US...Houston, TX.
I visited Trinidad
twice in the last year since my mother is still there and was actually thinking
of going back this summer...if I do I'll email and let you know if I can make
it in August.
However, if you ever need to contact me by
phone when/if you're in the US, my cell is the best way to get in
touch......713-417-2496....I'm attaching my business card with all my contact
info as well.
All the very best,
Howard.

the coaching pro at the time...he had two daughters and a son called Yvon?
....was a lot of fun...also I remember a girlfriend called Irene Lucas...her
father was an industrialist...I think he owned a shoe factory as
well......well...we've got to meet sometime soon...

Ladislao,
You did an excellent
job!....it's surprising how much time and effort is spent on this type of
activity...
I hope to meet you
some day in the very near future. I will visit Trinidad again this year....are
the Savy's still involved (coaching) at the Altamira Tennis Club.?...thanks to
your circulars I have made contact with David Bratt and will visit him when I'm
in Trinidad...good luck with your LED projects.
Best rgds,
