Two years ago I have the supreme pleasure of visiting Sicily! I was overwhelmed by the kindness of the people, the superb food, and the sheer beauty of the island! I came 'close' to the town I later found out was the one my maternal grandfather lived in -- and though I have yet to find the roots of my great grandparents or the place of origin for my paternal grandparents, I fell in love with Sicily and IMMEDIATELY felt as though I had come 'HOME.' I will return there soon .... but it can't be soon enough!
