Please help spread the word and donate if you are willing and able. Billy Abueva has been judging the ArtPetron contests with my dad for the last decade plus plus. He has such a wonderful spirit about him and in the last few years, though seated on a wheelchair, its still easy to catch him smiling. This is sad news with the potential to become good. Please re-post this and share through your networks. And to whoever it was who posted this, thank you very much.

For the information of my fellow Isko’s and Iska’s, this is the man behind the replicas of the Oblation in several U.P. chapters: Los Baños, Baguio, Tacloban, Miag-ao and Mindanao, as well as the Nine Muses (Ang Mga Diwata ng Sining) in U.P. Diliman, among others.
