When I think about Opa, I think and feel many things. I think and have memories that I will always keep in my heart.
But what I would really like to remember today is his integrity. I think that I admire the strength with which he stood by his ideals, his moral and ethic concepts. I think in not settling up. I think in the strength with which he always fought for what he believed in, the same that brought him to this country seeking for a better future for his family, and which made it possible for us to be gathered here today.
Opa is the person who reminds me that with courage and effort everything can be done.
