Dedication by the Editor, Gonz Reynalco (son) This book is dedicated to Gloria and Miguel, for the lives they filled up to the full, and to the present and future progeny of their love. May the descendants of the Deocampo-Gustilo-Reyes-Reynaldo lineage also blossom and bear fruits across the continents. This book is also dedicated to its readers... We are all together in our journey on this earth with those before us and those after us although the stories of countless lives in our 'innumerable caravan' could never be written or read. Read this book like we are reading a continuing story, as its authors, a passionate couple, write with lyricism and energy of the abundance of grace they experienced during the 20th Century. Times of grace are transient sketches in Life's perennial cycles, stories of a melancholy here and then of renewal there. Indeed, Life is a continuing story, of facing challenges without being an encumbrance to others, of fulfilling dreams and of other dreams living on, of acts of humaneness, of the depth of riches in finding fullness of life. In yearning, "Boy" Reynaldo, 2010, Sydney, Australia Editor
