I am...hello.. im catherine aguilar from MSU-gensan. I am privileged and blessed to had the chance of knowing Dr. Bastian. We were first acquainted november of last year during the philsagen convention in Iligan. He was indeed very kind and humble. indeed, when he was called for winning the best poster then, we were chatting and he had the second thoughts if it was him who was been called for he earlier said that his poster could impossibly win.. I even have pictures with him. I can vividly remember our lunch together and the tour we had there. with him, i met a very humble scientist and a nice friend. It was his smile that I could never forget, very warm and encouraging. Few times we met again in UP for research consultations and had tasted his coffee he never forgot to offer. Infact, we are supposed to meet him tomorrow. Sunday, when the news came upon to my senses, I was told that I could no longer meet him and definitely could not believe it. How could that be.. i never thought it would happen in a single snap. no one did.. loosing a "sir toto" is a painful reality, but i believe his remarkable charming smile will remind the people who love him that he will always be around the corners.He is in a better place now though his presence will always be missed. Im grateful i had the chance of knowing a one of a kind Dr. Severo Bastian in my lifetime even for a short time.. He and his family will always be in our prayers..<br /><br />Sir, cancel muna po meeting natin.. Till we meet again..cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17801800018100313871noreply@blogger.com
