May 2nd had always been a special day to my family. It's my Papa Nonic's birthday. Some of you may wonder why the picture is so ancient( circa 1975 btw). My Papa died due to kidney illness almost 31 years ago, a month before I was born. Christened, Jose Nazarito Nonilon Frasco Quinones(what a name!), he was known to family and friends as Nonic or Nic. He was born in 1943, he would have been officially a senior citizen today. Papa will always have a special place in our hearts.
