Married 40yrs in June. Have a wonderful family and two wonderful girls, with two wonderful grandbabies. Love cooking, Italian mostly. Been doing Genealogy research for my family for years have learned that we are mostly from the Basilicata Region on my fathers side and Sicily on my mothers side. I am the Great Granddaughter of Maria Giuseppa (Tortorelli) Lauletta, who died in the Triangle Factory Fire in NYC on March 27, 1911, along with her sister Isabella Tortorelli.
I also find myself an accomplished retired Costume Designer, who started out making kids costumes. I have a deep relationship to my ancestors and try to pass that on to my daughters.
