About Me
About joelu
Jose Luis De Asis Jalandoni or “Joe-lu” as fondly called by his friends, was born on April 16, 1960, at Riverside Medical Center, Bacolod City. He is the youngest of the brood of six of Generoso “Oso” Jalandoni and Imelda “Melding” Jalandoni. His father, being a quiet man like his youngest son, passed on to him the lens of raising various hence pets such as dogs, birds, ducks, and fighting cocks. The Jalandoni’s were reared in the Catholic faith and until now very supportive of their parish church. Thus, it was usual for the priest and his entourage to be regular house visitors and take part in significant events in the life of the family.
