MANILA, Philippines - It was a joint birthday celebration held at the condo unit of Lawrence Tan but the other honoree, Betchay Vera-Perez Nakpil, begged off since she was busy preparing for the 40th day of her mom Mama Nene’s death’s commemoration. So Pat-P Daza (right) happily blew the ‘just one’ candle on the cake bearing her name. Her well-wishers included (seated, from left) Ethel Ramos, Dolor Guevarra, Mother Lily, Susan Roces, (Pat-P), Danny Dolor and Ronald Constantino; and (back row, also from left) Shirley Kuan, June Torrejon-Rufino, Lawrence, JP Plata, Ricky Lo, Malou Choa-Fagar and Anes Plata.
