Dr. Leopoldo “Pol” Vergel de Dios ‘31 passed away in California, USA last March 24. A few days later, on March 30, B/Gen. Jesus T. Mendoza ‘32, former Surgeon General of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, joined our Creator. Vergel de Dios and Mendoza were both charter members of the medical fraternity Phi Kappa Mu in 1933, a testament to motto of the Upsilon of gathering the light to scatter.
