Araneta Grand Reunion

April 25, 2009 · Filed Under GPLZ stuff, Web  · 974 views

I never knew I was an Araneta until my dad forwarded to me a registration form for the Araneta Reunion. I was still a little sick from my previous illness, that’s why I had more time to blog so I asked him about it. My Dad was always attending Family reunions as he loves to reminisce and talk about the old times and emphasize that family is important. What is odd is I never asked about my Grandparents on my Fathers side. The only grandparent I was lucky enough to be in presence with is my grandma on my mothers’ side. My grandpa on my mothers’ side and grandparents on my fathers’ side were all in heaven before I was born.

So sick

My dad actually attended the Araneta Clan Grand Reunion and urged me to go with him; I asked where did we get the Araneta roots? Well to my surprise, my grandmother on my fathers’ side was an Araneta, that’s why my Dads middle initial is A, and I never asked about that. I’d like to trace my roots from there but I can’t find no further info, other than my Dad is called Pañero by a certain Enriquito Araneta every time he is around and that he explained to me my roots although it wasn’t clear. I wondered why all of a sudden I actually belong to a clan. Anyway, I’d be glad to actually finally know my ancestry; it’s like a puzzle that completes a person you know.

So I declined and said I wasn’t feeling too well. My dad attended and he still registered me and got me the items needed to attend in case I change my mind. So I have this Identification Card, Meal Tickets and a Yellow Shirt with the Araneta insignia. If you guys have any information that I can use to trace my roots, let me know.
