Ellis Island

In the early twenties my grandparents, Leonard and Marianna Amico, along with my Aunts and Uncles, came over from Sicily through Ellis Island. Today Tim and I got to go there for the first time. What an amazing joinery they took, and what enormous courage they had!

My grandmother actually made the trek alone with four young children. It’s not hard to see where our Mom learned to have such courage.

I’m so proud to be part of this amazing lineage! As grandma used to say “k bella America”!
