What is Good Neighbor Care? Who are they?

Good Neighbor Care, its name explains for itself. It is one of the most stable and growing Senior Living company in United States which I’m fortunate to be a part of.

Currently I’m at Fullerton Gardens, Assisted Living for Memory Care which is a Good Neighbor Care Community. What is great about my community – Fullerton Gardens is the longevity of staff and most of all, reputation in the community for having good care. To give you an idea of Fullerton Gardens’ longevity of staff, one of our cook has been with us for 23 years and care provider for 18 years. Being in charge of the occupancy, helping families in crisis and seniors to be safely somewhere, it is always a meaningful experience to make a difference in their lives. The reputation of Fullerton Gardens is amazing that we get our referrals thru word of mouth which always make me feel confident in representing Fullerton Gardens to the community that their loved ones are going to be well taken cared of. Isn’t that a wonderful feeling? (Representing and selling a true product to the consumers. That is why it shows in our numbers, we are still at a 100% occupancy.) Read the rest of this entry »

Welcome 2009!

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

August August is a very meaningful month in my life, not only it’s me and my husband’s birth month, but it is also our wedding anniversary.We spent quality time in San Clemente Beach, California on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. These are special moments and treasured memories that fame and fortune cannot replace in the world.

This was my picture taken during a concert in Manila, Philippines  last July of 2005, directed by a very good friend and producer, Angie Magbanua.

She finally joined our good Lord last Friday, January 18, 2008. Condolences to her family and friends. We will miss you.

She has directed several of my live performances and concerts abroad and in the Philippines.

Love made on TV

By Rita Neri

It was a grey, rainy Saturday when Jansen Cunanan exchanged I do’s with long time love, Emma Therese Pinga (a.k.a. Tootsie Guevara), last Aug. 8 at the Santuario de San Antonio in Forbes Park, but you wouldn’t have paid attention to the overcast skies at all because of the warm, happy feeling this particular wedding evoked in the church that day.

For the 300 or so guests that gathered to witness this wedding, this special moment was indeed filled with so much emotion that it brought to mind Elton John’s song, “Can You Feel the Love Tonight:” Many of the friends and relatives knew how this love story began. In August 2001, Jansen, then studying to be a physical therapist, met his “television crush” Tootsie Guevara through good friend, Geneva Cruz. While the first meeting did not ring any bells for Tootsie, it did spur Jansen to greater efforts to court his crush. This meant not only arranging for more meetings and chaperoned dates with Tootsie but also a long-distance courtship. Jansen was then in Subic because of his studies while Tootsie lived all the way in Cainta. Another obstacle to overcome was Mommy Tess. Tootsie’s charming, doting but very strict mama did not take kindly to all of Tootsie’s many suitors, including Jansen. But this enterprising young man now included Tootsie’s family in his courtship campaign that in a short while, Mommy Tess recognized the kind, decent, and sincere person that Jansen was. The final major stumbling block came in the form of an overseas separation for the two when Jansen had to leave for the US to further pursue his career. But true love does indeed stand the test of time when Tootsie was able to finally follow. Read the rest of this entry »
