When we understand what our fathers and forefathers were attempting to achieve, we come closer to understanding ourselves. Through them, we begin our identity, values, and beliefs. We further enhance the knowledge of ourselves as well as our connection with one another through the research of our relationship with God. I hope this book will help narrow the gap between far-flung relatives and inspire reflections upon where we have come from. May these pages preserve some of the stories and yarns of our elders and continue to give their memories life
