Heiter Cinco de Mayo Celebration - Maryknoll Reunion in Palm Dessert

Heiter Cinco de Mayo Celebration - Maryknoll Reunion in Palm Dessert

Andy and Tina Borja Heiter hosted a Cinco de Mayo celebration in their Palm Dessert home. Present were Tina's college classmates from Maryknoll College, Quezon City: Maria Navarro Ciocon, Lucy Adao McGinley, Med Villanueva, Esther Quintos Parker, Chona Saligumba Preston, Milette Estrada, Marieda Alba Cruz, and Cecilia Manguerra Brainard. Tina's classmate and cousin, Nati and Beverly respectively were present with their husbands Luis and Jan. Some of the "Maryknoll" husbands were present: Patrick McGinley, Owen Parker, Lauren Brainard, Pat Cruz, and  Andy Heiter (the funniest Swiss I've ever met!).

Tina and Andy had traditional Mexican food (for 50 people at least!) and background Mariachi music; and everyone had a great time catching up and bonding. Last year, the Heiters had hosted a luncheon for Tina's Maryknoll classmates as well.

My camera's batteries were low, but I was able to capture some images. For the group photos, I will have to wait for the others to email them, and I will post in this blog entry.

Thank you Tina and Andy, and to all --- great seeing you!
Cecilia
