I admired my Uncle, Roberto Rodriguez for his big effort to accomplish his dreams, without any other desires. Roberto was born in June, 7, 1960 Dominican Republic. He grew up in a small house in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic's Capital) with his mother. He had to walk half and hour to go to School but he was attracted by languages like English and french. At the age of 21 he graduated in Dominican Republic in a university call "Universidad Madre y Maestra Ucamaima".
Shortly after he graduate he decided to go take a look at the Unite states, so he went to live with his Dad in Manhattan. Being with his Dad and all, he decide to find a diploma equivalent. working hard in a part time job and focus on his studies he got an apartment of his one and married Iris Santana at the age 21 and with Her, he had two daughters. They were together for a few year and then they a divorce and way separate ways. Finally after studying and learning French plus perfecting his English and Spanish. He moved to Florida and became a home tutor. he was living a good live if you can say so, but soon after he turn 38 he developed cancer in his kidneys, even though he was sick that didn't stop him he got married again with Vivian UreƱa. He tought student from his own house and like that he lived peacefully trying new types of treatments and chemotherapy until he died in December 10, 2007.
I admire Roberto beause of this reasons, He was a strong and kind person plus he was really nice and gentle he made people laugh and while he was around every body was happy.
