Heritage- Where did I come from?
My father's side hails from New York. His father immigrated from Sicily and became a baker after settling in Jamaica, New York. Although I never met my paternal grandparents, I know their personalities live on through my siblings and me. We are all loud and talkative, which sometimes takes others by surprise but, to us, it's normal. We have spread across this fine country of ours, but we relish in the memories of a childhood drenched in love, laughter, and support.
From both sides of my children's family, there is a strong connection to serving our country. Many members of my husband's and my family have joined the Army, Navy, Marines, or Air Force. My father was actually one of the very first Medics in the Green Berets out of Fort Bragg. So, it is apparent my that my family represents the idea of America being the Melting Pot.
