At first, students might find you strict and a little intimidating, but they eventually realize that behind that strong presence is someone truly caring, considerate, and soft-hearted. You push students not to make life harder, but to bring out their best and guide them toward a clear purpose.

Your hard work as the Student Activity Coordinator continues to bring pride to the JBLFMU-Molo community, especially through the many achievements in sports. You may raise your voice now and then, but everyone knows it always comes with dedication and results that speak for themselves.

Thank you for pushing students to be better, for standing by them, and for always giving your best. Wishing you a birthday filled with laughter, well-deserved rest, and maybe just a little less stress for today.

𝙇𝙤𝙮𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙮 is a value that strengthens the Lacsonian community at JBLFMU-Molo. It is reflected in the way students honor their commitments, support their institution, and stand by the people who journey with them in learning and training.

In a maritime institution where teamwork, trust, and reliability are essential, loyalty builds unity and respect among future professionals. Cadets, students, and trainees learn that remaining faithful to their duties, their school, and their companions creates a community that can rely on one another in every challenge.

By practicing loyalty, Lacsonians carry forward the spirit of dedication and responsibility that defines the University and prepares them for the demands of the maritime industry.
