REMEMBER DA KING - Fernando Poe, Jr. (The True 14th President Of The Philippines)

August is DA KING's Month being his birthday....

If he lived to this day he would have been 72 years old....

To the fans of Da King, here's my tribute to The Actor ... The Legend...




THE MAN WHO SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE 14th PRESIDENT OF THE PHILIPPINES!

This Is My Way Of Remembering Him .....

Ronald Allan Pou y Kelley-Gatbonton was born on August 20, 1939 in Manila of Pangasinan, Spanish, Kapampangan and Irish American descent, the son of actor-producer-director Fernando Poe, Sr. of San Carlos City, Pangasinan (1916--1951) and Bessie Gatbonton Kelley (1918--1999) of Candaba, Pampanga.
His mother, Bessie Kelley, was an American and sometimes called Elizabeth Kelley in some sources especially in Philippine press.
His mother's parents, Arthur Kelley (WWI Army Corp of Engineer from Iowa, USA) was an Irish American who settled in the Philippines and Martha Gatbonton, a Filipina of mixed Kapampangan and Spanish heritage.
Poe Jr.'s parents were not legally married yet when he was born in 1939. His parents later married in 1940.
He was the second of six siblings, born after Elizabeth and before Fernando II (Andy -RIP), Genevieve (Jenny), Fredrick (Freddieboy), and Evangeline.
His name at birth was Ronald Allan Kelley Poe; his brother Andy was the legal Fernando Poe Jr. The late actor Conrad Poe was his half-brother..... (source: Wikipedia)

Music "Serenade" by Franz Schubert ....
copyright by EMI Publishing.

Schubert's immortal "Serenade" was written in 1826. it is so familiar that it needs no analysis, nor is one necessary from any point of view. It is simply a lovely melody from first note to last, written upon the inspiration of the moment, and yet characterized by absolute perfection of finish and a grace and beauty of which one never tires. It was originally composed as an alto solo and male chorus and was subsequently rearranged for female voices only. The circumstances of its composition as told by Schubert's biographer, Von Hellborn, are of more than ordinary interest.

Von Hellborn says:

"One Sunday, during the summer of 1826, Schubert with several friends was returning from Potzleinsdorf to the city, and on strolling along through Wahring, he saw his friend Tieze sitting at a table in the garden of the 'Zum Biersack.' The whole party determined on a halt in their journey. Tieze had a book lying open before him, and Schubert soon began to turn over the leaves. Suddenly he stopped, and pointing to a poem, exclaimed, 'such a delicious melody has just come into my head, if I but had a sheet of music paper with me.' Herr Doppler drew a few music lines on the back of a bill of fare, and in the midst of a genuine Sunday hubbub, with fiddlers, skittle players, and waiters running about in different directions with orders, Schubert wrote that lovely song."
