Our dear father was a wonderful, caring individual who ventured to the great shores of the United States of America, from the Island of Malta (Acts 28:1), in search of a new life - and found it.
He also introduced his family to the the grand sights of this Magnificent Land.
May he rest in peace and may God always enfold him in His Loving Arms.

One of my fond memories was in 1950. I was 5 years old. We had left our war-ravaged country for a new life in America. Our ship was heading into New York Harbor. My father woke us very early that morning. I remember he was so excited. He wanted to show us the "nice lady" who stood there to welcome our arrival.
I can still recall thinking that Americans must be such nice people. There, in all its magnificence, was the Statue of Liberty, and I thought they had placed her there just for our family to see.
