From Maria-Elena (Marlene) Mier-Nordenstrom

Well, I suppose I have to tell a little something about myself and  what I've been doing with my life after all these long years. ( I hope I will not bore everybody to death!).  I graduated from University of the East, Bachelor in Business Administration and also finished Secretarial course.  I Worked in Makati as Secretary to the Credit & Collection Manager at Bristol Myers/Mead Johnson, an American pharmaceutical company. My father, a US citizen, petitioned us to the US. And so my family are scattered all over USA areas.

I lived and worked at John Adams Community College as Secretary in San Francisco, CA for a while & then settled here in Minnesota 'cause Charles, my husband, is from here.  He works for Northwest Airlines at Material Supplies/Ground Operations.  He's been with this airline company for 32 years. His seniority, at least help us get a seat when we travel stand-by. Presently, I'm working for an Insurance Co. (Kemper Insurance), under the Workers' Compensation Department.  My job is to  assist closely with Senior Claim
Representatives and a variety of other functions.

We live at 8423 Columbus Ave S, Bloomington, MN 55420. Telephone number (612)854-8413. We are just close to the Airport and the famous "Mall of America". So come on guys! "Shop till you drop" everybody is welcome to stay with us.

Meanwhile, I'll try to send some photos. I want to share a group class photo taken during our grade school days in Kamuning, QC. Connie & brother Moises San Agustin, Reynaldo Robles, Rosalita Alcantara, to name a few were in that
picture.

 

Lot's of familiar faces- - - Connie San Agustin, Lerma Labrador, Arturo Fernandez, etc.

Maria-Elena (Do you remember the song with the same name?)  How could we have known that you'd grow up someday?

Where do I begin

Where do I start?

There'd never be another love, another time

She came into my life and made the living fine

She fills my heart

She fills my heart with very special things

With angels' songs , with wild imaginings

With her alone, who could be lonely?
C7 F
I reach for her hand, it's always there

How long does it last
Can love be measured by the hours in a day
I have no answers now but this much I can say
I know I'll need her till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there
