   Greetings Tita Gloria Sevilla! For many years I’ve been trying to reach you but unable to do so. Yet tonight I’ve been lucky ’cause I found your site. Indeed you’re the undisputed Queen of Visayan Movies but I’m also sure that you remember my late father, FRED MONTECILLO, your co-starring actor between 1950-1954, appearing in such movies as INAHAN, MAGDALENA, BUGASMAIS, etc. At his untimely death in 6/20/54, I was just 4 and my only brother Fredo, 3 years old. Then Mommy Trining passed away in 1984, followed by Fredo in 1992, thus leaving me as the sole survivor.My mother told me that You & Matt Ranillo were the Godparents of my only brother during his baptism. I’m now a mother to 4 sons & a grandmom to 5 kids. My utmost interest now is to ask for your help in obtaining copies of the films mentioned above. These filmms would be the precious legacy of my family. Thanking you in advance for whatever possitive outcome of this quest. My business/home address: 66 B. Aranas St. Cebu City, 6000, Philippines. My contact nos.: (032)2623647; cell: +6309173223519. More power to your films & God bless you always. Your help would be most welcome & appreciated. Sincerely, Susan a. Montecillo

   Ms.Goria,

   Greetings!
   My dad, Eddie Tojong was able to tell me years ago about how he came to know you during those times when my lola, mrs. Aurea “auring” Tojong, used to produce visayan films way back 50-60′s with you as one of lola’s actress. Im am presently in quezon city with my kids since 2008 when i became a single parent. I would love to talk or see you. Recently my dad encourage me to get in touch with you. He is 74 yo already and he loves to talk about those times when they are still into production. Would like to seek your advise or rather your help since a very young gay director promised to groom and “alaga” my kids esp my 20 yr old son and my 17 and 9 yrs old daaughters. Since lola is not around anymore, i am not yet used to the ways of showbiz. Would just want my kids to be developed in acting just what lola auring used to do for others.I do understand that you are a busy person as i have monitored since my kids are undergoing workshop at abs-cbn this summer.
   Would it be possible for me and the kids to see you anytime at your convenience. This is the only way i can get in touch with you. My mobile phone is 09067016166 and 09238939133.
   Thank you you so much for you time, Ms.Gloria.
   Respectfully,
   Aurea Loretta “ALORE” Tojong
