To the Management of PMMS Las Pinas and Manila and fellow PMMS Alumni with special thanks to Mr. Jun dela Cruz, who accommodated my visit and request in short notice to provide naval military honors to our brother, 2nd Officer Justin Marc Patacsil Calica, an alumnus of BSMT Batch 1992, an Editor in Chief of PMMS School Paper, The Anchor and a College Scholar, our sincere and overwhelming gratitude to you.

We can't thank you enough for allowing my brother experience the final honor to a shipmate/naval officer and the display commitment to his legacy. We may have not known the real cause of his death on board ship up to this time but i know that he was very much pleased and proud that what he has learnt from his Alma Mater and was put into good use in his tour of duty as the 3rd in command in navigating a ship.

Our family acknowledges with great appreciation the PMMS cadets from Manila campus who took vigil on the last night of the wake and provided great honors and tribute as they proudly raised their rifles and swords to honor a fellow PMMS graduate. His story was a living testimony to these cadets and we hope that Justin has touched their lives to make good in their chosen profession.

We can't thank you enough for this. Kudos PMMS!!!

More power to your school and God Bless You All!!!

Sincerely,

Calica Family
