He is now a cook,  he has 2 jobs right now, at Morton's Steakhouse and  Toscana Country club. He worked in LG's Steakhouse, Avondale Country Club and worked in Don Diego's Mexican food. He is a great cook.

But luckily there was a lady from where she lived that delivers babies for people in labor.  She is 45 years old.  Her birthday is April 21, 1972.  She works at Marriott Desert Spring Villas vacation club.  She has three brothers and two sisters.  One of her brothers passed away at the age 39.  My mom graduated from High school and after that, she got married to my dad.

In conclusion, my family and ancestors are known for having a great character and hardworking traits.  I'm thankful for my family, every one of them.  They have always pushed me to succeed, to never give up, and to aim high.  My legacy is to pursue an education because my parents didn't get the chance to.  I wish I can follow my dreams and be successful in life.
