Psalm 23

Posted by Picasa

The LORD Is My Shepherd

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

The Upsilonians Came to Condole




Posted by Picasa "Brother Jun Alegre '53 - when I meet you brother in the sun, I shall tell you much. "

Now I understand why the leaders of Upsilon are called Illustrious Fellows, they look up to the sun and they endeavor to live their lives to illuminate others - to inspire and energize. Papa, you are worthy to be called an Upsilonion. I wish the younger generations take this to heart. Thank you Professor Vergara - you made our last moment with our Dad more meaningful by adding wonderful pieces to the puzzle.... your testimonial shed another aspect of his life. We are more than grateful.

Mission of This Blog

This blog is created to continue the bond that was formed out of my father's quest to search for his roots. He was told by his father that the Alegre family came from fro Paoay Ilocos Norte. And so he embarked on a pilgrimage in search of his relatives in Ilocos Norte and there, he breathed his last.

He didn't get to see his relatives in Paoay but as soon as the Alegres of Paoay heard about a news that a man died in search of his roots, they all flocked to the parlor where he lied in state for a night.... and so started the beginning of this blog.

Its mission is to keep the bond of the Alegre Family. Being Ilocanos, we are a wanderer - always searching for fresh opportunities wherever it is in the world. One can find an Alegre in all the places in the Philippines, Hawaii and the US Mainland.

We would like to keep the fire burning. Any one who carries with them the Alegre blood line is free to post an article, a picture, a news.
