They both had dreams of coming to America and eventually her father was sponsored by a nice couple from the states to become an American citizen in the 1950s. Her mother and father were married for 57 years and lived a beautiful love story building a life with family in America. Melissa hopes to keep their memory alive through Lucy’s eyes as a child.
