Dear Somos Primos reader:
If you sent an article and it does not appear in this issue, please
forgive me. It will be in the July issue. I was up to 300 pages on the
June issue and needed to shrink the issue down. I suggest you let the
issue load fully before scanning. It is about 250 pages, and slow to
fully load.

In the July issue, I hope to include lots of ideas for celebrating
Hispanic Heritage Month. Please feel invited to share sites, cultural
and heritage materials, or ideas.

I think you all will be touched by efforts of three individuals honoring
the leadership and sacrifices that their father made for /La Raza/,
Wanda Garcia, Magdalena Morales, and Eddie Marin. Especially shared with
joy in recognizing Father's Day.

Warm regards, Mimi
