HRC-Celebrations of Seniors Day-Sunday 14th Oct 2012

Pure opinion and views
The Amazing Greys did it again!!!Simply delightful and joyous, that's the international seniors day celebrations of HRC @ the Toh Yuen Restaurant- Klang Executive Club, Sunday afternoon.Top marks guys- the afternoon was one pure  swinging fun satisfying food, good entertainment, devoid of formalities , care free..the kind that you could relax and be comfortable ...just being with the good company and  enjoy...


Doreen with Parish Priest, Father Mari Arokiam & invitees

Peter Chan-no introduction needed
My favourite was the Sing Along with Billy and the Gang..awesome! I asked them..how long  their band were in existence, and they told me...a week...that's all the time they took to practice, to serenade the 150 Amazing Greys who turned up for the International Seniors Day lunch and celebrations... and I thought they were together for 40 years or more., the ease with which they belt out golden oldies spoke of seasoned entertainers .....Just shows seniors can do anything if they were given the task and boy, were they brilliant ! They got most of the lunching  group.....especially YT clapping and singing without reservations to the lyrics of evergreen favourites! Hope no one was video taping...but heck, what do I care??? It was fabulous and I thoroughly enjoyed myself!

Dance, dance, little ladies dance!!
Tons of lucky prizes for the picking but believe it or not,  YT didn't even get to smell one...sigh! the elusiveness of luck! BUT there were plenty of +++++++ in that celebrations -lively atmosphere and lovely company, the presence of an amicable parish priest.And the children from a Girls Home-St. Bernadette Girls Home in Taman Melawis ..they were extraordinary! Talented bunch...they sing and dance so engagingly!! Credit to good teachers-me think.  
ISD cake cum Oct birthday
celebrations - and that
includes the Parish Priest
Parish Priest Father Mari seemed to have captured the hearts of the HRC senior parishioners...He was mighty popular. Certainly plenty of friendly exchanges between priest and his flocks....no awkwardness .....no barriers there.. The ears also picked up plenty of "Likes" too! Touching to see seniors on standby and protective mode...."taking care of their parish priest"..making sure..he's well looked after. Guess that's the plus points when you're with Seniors-they think of everything.  
Wonderfully fun!! Great stuff guys!! The day cannot begin and end without God., without gratitude and mention of God......hei did I share??? At the 11.00a.m. mass, Seniors were blessed, with good doses of prayers dedicated for their well-being ...as one of them..I felt blessed  Those prayers were a reinforcement of what we ourselves are asking  of God at this stage of our lives... YT received  a generous dose  of holy water....If you believe in its powers as I do........ it  always gives the extra oomph!!! Thanks & God Bless!!
