I used to stand outside All Saints as a child and dream I was going there. I did not have the opportunity, but using my savings as an RN, (Highland School of Nursing- I worked my way through) I started building condos with a partner in Salt Lake City UT, made enough to put my 3 grand children through kindergarten- high school (NV:St Teresa’s, Our Lady Of Snows, Bishop Manogue). My g son Jonathan is a Captain in the US Army heading a cyber intelligence unit, working on his master’s at U of Boston, Granddaughter is Kaitlin entering her final year at Gonzaga U , head of her class. AnnaLouisa, named after her two great great great grandmothers from the Azores, is national gold scholar at Bishop Manogue High school. My pop was really smart but not educated past Hayward High, Grandfather Martin was also super smart. My daughter was more average, but true to the Portuguese way, is an independent business woman- owner of Capitol Reporters, Carson City NV. She out-earns her husband who is a lawyer. I was on my own at 18, and never had but a piecemeal education. After attending college here and there, finally graduated SJSU in ‘81. We Portuguese have always made good citizens and no matter how poor we were, starting out, we do well given half a chance.
You are a fine example of our people. Thanks for running this site and sharing selflessly with us out here in the Portuguese diaspora. I miss my Portuguese family so much, as all but one whom I see once a year, are sleeping with the angels. I was the youngest of old parents so it is my fate to be the last of the old ones. FYI, my uncle Arnold Martin was a pharmacologist, had his store in downtown San Leandro, CA, I think half of our people went to his store as a pharmacist back them could mix drugs and dispense them.
