GERMAN ANULACION:
“YOU HAVE TO EARN YOUR WAY TO THE GOAL YOU MOVE TOWARD. HARD WORK PAYS OFF.”
Can you state your name and occupation for the camera?
My name is German D. Anulacion. I am a retired civil engineer.
How do you spell your name?
G-E-R-M-A-N. Germany without the Y.
Can you introduce yourself, as if we’ve never met before?
I am a father of two daughters and three grandchildren. I was married to my wife, Paz, for 35 years, until she passed away in 1999. I was an engineer, professionally, but retired about 20 years ago. I enjoy doing handy work, home improvement work, in my free time and exercising. Staying healthy is a priority, now that I’m older. That is what I focus most of my time with these days.
Why are you here today?
I was asked if I would sit down to answer questions about my life.
What is the date of your birth and where were you born?
I was born in Tayug, Pangasinan, Luzon, the northern most island of the Philippines on May 12, 1933.
