My dearest family I know we've had our share of ups and downs but what family doesn't, I just wanted to say that no matter how far I'm at I always have you in my heart. You all have helped me in your own little way and I appreciate every part of it. I learned alot from my parents and whether I liked it or not it was for the better and it was also their way of showing me that they love me. Although my family has tried living the old fashion life we grew into the modern world and became what we are today but grandpa pereda never forgot and never gave it up and sticking to his roots Im appreciative of all the hard times he went through just to get his family by. I love and miss you all back home and one day I will be home for a surprise visit!!!
