Our parents met by chance and created a life together over the last 50 years. Our mom was 14 living in New York and our dad was 19 living in Puerto Rico. Just as luck would have it, our dad was friends with her cousin George from high school. When our mom went to Humacao, Puerto Rico to visit her family in the summer of 1969, she also met her future husband. They dated long distance until our dad moved to Ithaca, New York to pursue his MBA closer to his love in 1973 when they became engaged. August 10, 1974 our parents married and embarked on an incredible journey of love and family which took them to Ithaca, New York, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and Florida. Each of you were part of this incredible journey from either the very beginning or somewhere along the way. We are so blessed to have you all help us celebrate our parents 50th anniversary!
