This is my mother...isn't she beautiful! I think so. She was
born in San Antonio, Texas. She married that handsome Italian on the right and together they loved four children into
this world of ours. She was an entrepreneur of Entrepreneurs. She made dolls and sold them to friends. She
hosted household product parties at her home, sold the products and gained commissions or gifts. She worked for Joske's
of Texas--If you can remember that store--you've been around a while!

This is my dad. He was born in Monterrey, Mexico. His dad, José
María Panza was from Palermo, Sicily. His mom, "Mamá Stella," had some french ancestry but met José in Monterry and
they nurtured most of their six boys and two girls in Mexico. During the days of Pancho Villa, much of the family
moved into the U.S. to escape the tyrany brought on by the Mexican Revolution. Ricardo, my dad, was not only handsome,
he was a fine and respected Auto Mechanic. He also drove oil tankers for a bit and toted his family with him on the
truck...except for me...I missed out on all the fun...I came into life a bit later than my siblings.
