What's not to love about being Italian?
Wonderful meals, memorable family gatherings, and stories of Morcone!
I have always had a strong passion for family and my mother and grandmother nurtured it. My mother kept a genealogy of sorts for both sides of her family. When we heard news from Italy that a new baby was born or someone was married, she recorded it all. I know my grandmother kept in close contact with her family and her husband's family through letters. I can picture her at the dining room table writing letters using the thin "onion-skin" stationery. Oh how, we got excited when a letter arrived from Italy
