Grandma Anna Ricci - despite coming to the country with nothing- she managed to acquire a house in NYC- a whole house- grew her own fruits and vegetables in the back yard - had chickens- and a lot of really nice jewelry- I look at the cross of hers that she loved that is the only piece I still have- I wish I could talk to her- I barely knew her - she died when I was very young- many times my Mom reflected on how she finally understood all she had gone through in life- funny- it seems to always happen too late -
