Alma's Story
Once in a while when I am not multi-tasking I ask myself, what is this Latina from the west side of San Antonio doing in the Nation's Capital? And I have to answer "Doing the best I can." The lessons from my parents, my teachers at Ruiz Elementary School and Lanier Junior and High School still apply, whatever you do, do it well, take pride in your work, and bring honor to those who helped you be who and where you are.
Then I smile and remember Mom and Dad saying, "whatever you do do the very best possible job." And Mrs. Davidson...Expand for more
at Ruiz, and Coach Bobby Byrd at Lanier saying, Alma, keep smiling and you will always do well.
In spite of many hurdles, ups and downs, I can honestly say they were right and I am a better and happier person for it.
Thank you to all who befriended me along the way. Thank you for giving me the solid support that helped me overcome barriers. Thank you for just being there and making my life such a rich one.
I truly hope your life is as blessed as mine has been and if I can ever repay your generousity of spirit, count on me.
