My dad is beside himself with pride.  I am Mexican American.  My last name is Robles (Oak)
and there are Migrant Workers in my family history.  Born and raised in Southern California.
These kinds of stories are heartwarming for me.  My dad struggled growing up but put himself
through college and graduated with a degree in Design...owned his own Custom Furniture
business and made a good name for himself in the trade.  His designs are still in demand.  I
remember how hard he worked to give us a good foundation.  Education was and still is important
to him and therefore to us.  He and my mother, both in their 80's will be visiting me and Ron in
mid September...I can't get enough of their stories and wisdom.  I know they will be cheering
this young man into the stars!!!  Good find, Jim...thanks!
