My Idols

He was born in Minas Gerais state on October 20, 1920, in a little city named Santo Tomas de Aquino.
He grew up around farms and great friends. He studied in a public school and graduated in Accountancy.
In November 1943, he met a beautiful girl in Natal city, where he was being trained by Brazilian army to go to Italy and Africa.
There was the time of the great world war.
But he and his girlfriend decided to get married. The wedding was in Natal city on January 30, 1944.
After that, he went to Italy and his wife stayed in Santo Tomas de Aquino. His wife waited for him for one year.
When he returned from Italy he was made a hero by his country, city and family.
They formed a big family with six children. They were five women and just one man.
His great dream and plan for the future was to buy a big house to his family and see all of them graduated. They were successful, just like in his plans.
He died on August 20, 1978 and his family suffered a lot.
His wife lives in Campinas city and has three great-grandchildren.
They are my Idols. They are my mother and my father.
