I was the copy chief at Philippine Advertising Counselors (PAC) in Makati in 1967-68, and Terry Caparas was one of the copywriters already there when I was hired. She was a good copywriter, and one of the happiest, most cheerful people I’ve ever met. I remember that one of her favorite songs was “Make Someone Happy.” She used to sing it all the time. I lost touch with her when I left Manila for the United States in June 1968. I heard subsequently that she had died in the 1970s or maybe the 1980s. It made me very sad, because I liked her a lot. She always seemed a bit ethereal to me, as though she lived in a world of her own making. I have just one picture of her on my website. I wish I had more. How did you meet her?
Hi Paul,
Sorry for the delay but just had a major operation here in Makati. Sorry to hear aboutTerry. She was a great person to know. We met in Bacolod with the St Theresa College classmate of Terry. Then she went to Europe as a model of Karilagan. Lost touch with her. Tried her name in the internet and found you as her friend. I am from Bacolod and still in Bacolod. I just to pick up Terry in that ad office in 1968. Thank you for the reply and info. Hope to meet you some day and talk about Terry.
A great website. Did you design it yourself?
Hi Paul,
I am Philip Garcia here in Bacolod City Philippines. I wonder if you have any news of Terry Caparas?
Met her in the ’60s. Thank you.
