Tessie Amparo recently celebrated her birthday at the Turf Room of the Manila Polo Club with a fund raiser for Michael Angelo Lobrin, a seminarian from San Carlos seminary. The well-attended affair included a Mass celebrated by Father Noel. Guests were entertained by award-winning singer Alexie Edralin who sang both Philippine classics and Broadway hits. The surprise of the evening, however, was former Solicitor General Frank Chavez, who gallantly accommodated the celebrant’s request by singing a number of songs in his own inimitable style that left the normally sophisticated female guests swooning and begging for more.
A wonderful and charitable way to celebrate a birthday, dear Tessie! Many many more!
