My deepest condolence for loss of a dear friend.  Accept my sincere sympathies to the Velasco’s families and friends and wish you peace and comfort as you grieve.

I will always remember Dr. Rustico Rebullar Velasco AKA "Rusty" as most of his tennis buddies,  friends and fellow shipmates knew him in the mid-70's in Taipei, Taiwan ROC where we had the pleasure of spending our exciting Navy tour of duty there for a few years. As the vice-president of the Fil-Am Association in Taipei, Rusty devoted a good number of his off-duty hours in cultural and other festive activities there that involved the U.S. military and the local Fil-Am community.  Shore duty was generally good for most sailors but was also invariably short and it was always melancholic to say goodbye to the co-workers, friends and others as orders are received to either report to the next duty station or retire to civilian life.  Little did I know that I would run into Rusty again when I retired from the Navy in 1979 and life was back to the "good times" again as Rusty and I and others were able to continue playing tennis whenever I visited San Diego with my family to attend the Annual Fil-Am  Taiwan Veterans Association at MCRD, an event managed by Rusty and other dedicated San Diego based-Taiwan veterans and dependents.  Our family will definitely miss Rusty Velasco, the ever-generous friend to all, with his good sense of humor who's always ready to welcome his friends and shipmates to his home, with open arms.  May you have a pleasant journey to Eternal Life as the Good Lord open His arms to you in Heaven.

May 1954 NTC San Diego, when we meet.

Some time in March 1978 is second time we meet at Dental Office where work.

Some time in 2006 I think that we meet the third time but this time 
 at lest three times a week every week at McDonald Resturant with 
a group of military retirees, 

The last time I saw him was the second week of January 2021 I think.
