Meanwhile, here's what ChatGPT says about my Father-  Dr. David Jamili Katague (1905–1971)

Dr. David Jamili Katague was a Filipino dentist and artist born on December 22, 1905, in Buenavista, Guimaras, Philippines. He was the son of Roberto Javellana Catague and Consolacion Golez Jamili. Due to financial constraints, he was adopted by a wealthy aunt from Leganes, Iloilo, who supported his education. He graduated as salutatorian from Iloilo High School and later earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of the Philippines, Manila, in 1929. That same year, he placed second in the Philippine dental board examination and married Paz Barrido Balleza from Barotac Viejo, Iloilo. They have 7 children, DavidB, Erico, Myrla, Agnes, Efren, Dolce Ruben and Amor.

Dr. Katague practiced dentistry in Jaro, Iloilo, where he also showcased his talents as a caricaturist and painter. He passed away on November 30, 1971, in Iloilo City. However, none of his art work had been publicly exhibited except to his immediate family specifically to his oldest son, David B Katague.
