Mom and dad

in love at a beach paradise circa 1953,

and

as it happens to many refugee and immigrant families -

with zero

expectation or knowledge

that only a few years later they would leave

everything and

everyone behind

to seek a better life for their children in Europe and

later the

United States of america.

Gisela

("Tita")

The first of the family to immigrate. 

Our aunt came to an unknown land;

not speaking the language,

and willing to work anywhere to survive and

help the family left behind. 

with the low wages she earned at

a downtown los angeles/Ca clothing factory,

she was barely surviving financially and

against the advice of many who told her to just help herself -

she chose to help other family members immigrate.

"My Grief Angels"

is dedicated to

refugees and

immigrants

worldwide

it

was created

IN MEMORY OF

our own refugee and

immigrant family:

our parents,

our AUNT & UNCLE

AND the extended family
