Happy Easter rallypoint brothers and sisters! I am finally in San Marcos Ocotepeque, Honduras. I come here to yearly to my Mother. She has advanced dementia and she may not live that much longer. I will see her tomorrow first thing. While visiting my cousin for dinner, they had a procession down the street that went through the whole town. The Catholic church is sponsoring that Jesus is the light of the world and everybody was walking with candles and singing. A PA loudspeaker was announcing good things about peace, love and understanding. I will attach more pictures to this feed shortly.

Happy Easter and take care, LTC (Join to see). I’m so sorry about your Mom. As an aside, how did your Mom come to live in Honduras, if you don’t mind my asking?

After getting her Master's in Social work studying in Puerto Rico, Chile, Brazil.and Argentina in the 1950s, She applied for a resident Visa and immigrated to the USA in 1959. My Mother is on the right. Picture taken in 1958.

She moved back in 2010 to stay. Her Brother(My Uncle) takes care of her. He is 88 and has no memory issues.
