Don Ángel is very proud of his family. He has been married to doña Conchita forty-seven years. At first he resisted, but later he realized that “the little girl” really loved him. His wife was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2001. Before arriving in Minnesota, they spent twenty-five years in New York. They worked really hard. They have always relied on family and the church. Don Angel takes care of his wife twenty-four hours a day. “You need to have love and patience but above all you need to pray to God, every day.”
