American Dream Come True.
Many years ago, it was our dream to settle down in the
USA. Such Dreams don't usually come true....... But we achieved
the American Dream Came to this country in 1992 for the sole
purpose of a better education for our children and a better
future. In fact the family visited New York
during earlier visits and were keen to immigrate here. The
timing was right and this was the land of opportunities.
Fortunate are those who are family sponsored and arrive on
Immigrant visa (Green Card). Those without it, have to struggle,
find their own way, and such was our case too. We have had
little or no help. Had a dream of becoming American Citizens,
and this dream came true in 2001 but we don't forget our
homeland, Barkur, in particular Padeshwar Kudru, Barkur, where
my mother Margaret Martis of 88 years, resides there inspite the
tough living conditions.
We had a dream of giving our children the best education they
could achieve. The eldest daughter, Zalita, graduated from
St.Peters College,
NJ.
Andrea in her 2nd year at Rutgers University,
NJ.
and Joleen in 9th grade looking to get her degree from well
known Universities.We could not have dreamed for anything
better. An American Dream come true!!!!!!
Love,
Martis Family,
