Congrats Umberto! I knew you'd do it!
It could not happen to a more deserving person. Umberto is the paradigm of the American dream. I have known him for 40 years and he has pulled himself up by his bootstraps.
Umberto, I am so proud of you and so happy for the future of our ISBA. Glad to see that hard work is rewarded. You are a man of vision, compassion, competence and action. Please let me know if I can be of help to you. Congratulations!
