As early as 8 a.m. the people of Dolores were flocking to the Dolores Civic Center. The crowd grew bigger as noon approached. It was the 32nd birthday of Mayor JR Seares, and everyone was invited to the celebration.

The local government employees, the senior citizens group, and even the students of the Heart of Mary High School provided the entertainment as they each presented “songs of endearment” for their beloved Mayor. Sangguniang Panlalawigan Brix Bachiller and Vice Mayor Dante Guzman also delivered their own messages and sent out their best wishes.

Finally, lunch was ready and everyone indulged with the different dishes and drinks available at the buffet tables. Everyone’s appetite were undoubtedly satisfied before they went back to their homes.
