I AM THE 11TH OF 12, BORN TO CARMEN AND MARCOS RIOS SR. THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO MY WONDERFUL FAMILY. I GIVE THANKS TO MY PARENTS FOR MAKING THIS BOOK SO EASY FOR ME TO CREATE. BECAUSE OF YOU (MOM & DAD) IT WAS EASY TO GATHER ALL THE INFORMATION I NEEDED.
AS I BEGAN TO COMPLY PHOTOS AND INFORMATION FROM MY SIBLINGS, I ENCOUNTERED FOND MEMORIES WHICH BROUGHT ME BACK TO THE TIME WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL
THANK YOU MY DEAR FAMILY FOR ALL YOUR ASSISTANCE IN THIS GREAT PROJECT

FOREVER GRATEFUL,

CARMEN RIOS GINES
