Obsessed now, and I'm unapologetic about uploading 52
priceless photos. Just found within last 2 years by my Tito Jojie (was with my Lola Zon's possessions during her wake). Commentary on each photo included (thanks Tito Jojie).
I am sure there were moments of light in the family's dark past.
I stumbled across this Blog entry on the
Families of Old Cebu. I wonder if the blogger (
Toto Gonzales) has information on the Marzos. I left him a comment.
