Elixir Of Life

This book is dedicated to my Great Grandma Rosie. Whom with bravery and valor came across the great Atlantic sea to follow my Great Grandfather Louis, to start a new life. Great Grandfather forged ahead 10 years earlier to start a new foundation in the Americas. He was told they had gold lying along the streets. All you had to do was pick it up. Much to his dismay, and his brother Antonio’s there wasn’t any gold lining the streets.  But,they were young strong men and the railroad was hiring, so they lived in a rooming house until Grandpa Louie bought a home and sent for his family ten years later.

 To my beautiful Mother and endearing Aunt Jeanie who handed down her recipes. Both strong women themselves pioneering with the female energy of the time, keeping their families together with Love and Devotion. When they themselves lost their mother to mental

illness at the young age of twelve. 

Being raised by my Grandfather Gabriel and Grandma Rosie to become fine Women Of the World.
