My great grandma on my dads side came from Palermo Italy to Rosemont IL. She came with my grandfather when she was 16 and he was still a little baby. She still struggles with her English and she is 92 and still lives in Rosemont. My Grandfather speaks fluent English and Italian. They struggled in the beginning with money but next year my grandfather is retiring from his job that he has worked all his life at. We still keep a lot of recipes from Italy like a special lasagna or tortellini. This post affects your history because it was an important event that happened in my life and I would not be in the U.S .
