      Pintong Garcia

      Ruperto "Pintong" Garcia, 105 year-old tambalan, is certainly one of the very few living Filipino centenarians. Here he shows me a piece of "live" stone, which he said served as a lucky charm for winning cockfights by my maternal grandpa, Santoriano Orbeta, his close friend. My granda passed away around 1973.
