Letters to BoricuaFirst
Hola;
Te saludo de Las Vegas.
Quiero decirte que recibir tu carta noticiera es un placer y un orgullo para mí. Tú, no sé si eres mujer u hombre eres lo que yó llamo una/un boricua de verdad. Se ve que eres bien educada/o por tu ortografia y gramatica., y que amas a tu patria.
Yo como Boricua, orgullosa de lo que soy y donde vengo siempre he tratado de poner nuestra bandera y nuestra cultura en alto. y veo que tu tambien estas haciendo lo mismo. Esto es darle un buen ejemplo a los jovenes de hoy en dia, que aunque no nazcan en la isla conoscan nuestra cultura y nuestra historia.
Yo tengo dos nietos, varon y mujer que solo son mitad Boricua pero si tu les preguntas que són te dicen muy orgullosos I'm Puerto Rican. No hablan español pero lo entienden un poco y conocen nuestra cultura desde chicos.
Cuando tenia mi restaurant aquí en Las Vegas algunos de los Boricuas que mencionastes llegaron a comer ahí, Jimmy Smits, su esposa Wanda de Jesus, Tony Orlandoy su mamá Ruth, John Ruizy su familia, Gilberto Santa Rosa y algunos de su grupo y el equipo Olimpico de Baloncesto de Puerto Rico,con su managers, todos orgullos de Puerto Rico. Todos para mi representan al hombre Puertoriqueño, cultos, caballerosos, respetuosos y sobre todo orgullosos de ser Boricuas aunque algunos de ellos no nacieron en la Isla
You make me proud. Keep up the good work,
Doña Carmen

Armando Pacheco nos escribe desde Penuelas, Puerto Rico:
If you visit PR you may want to stay at Cabanas El Rucio in Penuelas, PR. This place is own and operated by Boricuas. Take a look a cabanaselrucio.com or call me at 347 581 1778. We were visited by a group of Boricuas and Mexicanos from San Antonio and they had a wonderful time!
PartyLite Latino está buscando Consultoras y Líderes en esta área que quieran formar su negocio y comenzar a ganar al menos $1,000.00 mensuales realizando 10 demostraciones….
I am a San Antonio transplant from New York. I am Latina and I am assisting in building the Latino Market here in San Antonio. I would like to know if there are any upcoming fairs that I can be a vendor with a table or maybe how to link my email or if there are any meetings you hold where I can set up a pretty display and hand out information.
PartyLite is a party plan company. We do demos in the home and show our platinum quality candles. We do Candle Parties! On average a Consultant can earn about $100 a show and there is no financial investment to get started. We have tons of literature all in Spanish so even a person entering this country, not knowing the language, can have their very own business, and earn great money.
I appreciate any information! Thanks so much!

Myrna Hernandez I am a Puertorriquena de Santurce, Puerto Rico. I have lived in the Bronx,
New York, since 1966. I have a daughter (35 y/o)and am raising an 11 year
old son. I would like to commend you on your page, which I found thanks
to my friend Sylvette Rivera.
My ex-sister in-law lives in San Antonio since she got married. I am
talking probably 20 years. I do not know her married name but her maiden
name Luz Minerva Ortiz. I would like to communicate with her and if all
boricuas from San Antonio see your page maybe somebody knows of her and
can give her my email. I would like for my daughter to get to talk to
her which has not been possible because of family separations.
My ex-husband (Luz's brother)is Luis Felipe and her mom's name is Aurea
Pineda Chanza. Again if you have any ties with other boricuas in
San Antonio, Texas and can relay this message to "Cucusa", let her know
that in NY she does have a niece and a grand-niece.
Thanks for your help.

Where can I get help on the serious issue of education and what to do when
the administrators at my boy’s school are trying to destroy him and his
education by labeling him and setting him to fail. This is a serious issue.
I would appreciate your referrals on organizations or persons whose sole aim
to serve Puerto Rican families and youth to succeed and pave the way for the
next generation of Puerto Ricans. I am faced with fighting for my child’s
right to a quality education when the school officials just want
him to be a school drop out because that’s all they think
he’s worth. I am fighting alone, but I’m fighting until I die.
I need
resources of those who understand what’s going on with the Hispanic youth
and want to make sure there are not left behind and that they succeed. I
will sincerely appreciate information that may lead me to the right person
or organization.
Very truly yours,
Myrna Aurora Colón NYPR4Christ007@aol.com
