Christmas is a big deal in the Tantoco home, as it is in a typical Filipino family.
Nena Tantoco and Tony Boy Escalante hosted a preview of the Negros Trade Fair (NTF) at Antonio’s in Alfonso, Cavite.
How do you rock while still holding on to good old family values?
Nena Tantoco, wife of Bienvenido “Rico” Tantoco Jr., president of Sta. Elena Properties and chair of Rustan Group of Companies, has been decorating the homes of close friends and loved ones during Christmas for several decades now. This year is no different.
Fr. Carmelo “Tito” Caluag told guests that the fabulous dinner held in the spacious lanai of the home of Bienvenido “Rico” Tantoco Jr. and wife Nena in Sta. Elena, Laguna, was just a “dry run.”
Rico Tantoco and wife Nena hosted a special thanksgiving dinner to honor the tight-knit Sta. Elena Golf and Country Estate community in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, which will celebrate its silver anniversary. You see, dahlings, the Tantocos wanted to show their gratitude to the residents who inspire them to continuously develop this warm and wonderful sanctuary.
With her kids all grown and having their own families, it has been harder each year to gather Marina “Nena” Vargas Tantoco’s entire brood under one roof at Christmas.
When Negros traders want to assert their soft power, they call on Marina Vargas Tantoco for assistance.
