About The Book

This book is RickÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s life story, written especially for the descendants of Eleuterio and Juliana Siangco to remember their roots. However, it is truly a modern Americana story of a first-generation immigrant son born in America who learns to balance his 1950s American values with those of the old country that his parents brought with them from the Philippine Islands even as he becomes a magistrate. A genuinely entertaining family book.

About The Author

Rick Siangco was born to Filipino immigrant parents in 1939 in HawaiÃ¢â‚¬â„¢i. His mother died of cancer when Rick was five years old. Promising their mother on her deathbed that she would not separate her siblings, RickÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s eldest sister and her husband, Jean and Teopilo Gomez, took in six children, ages 3 months to 10 years. A strong family bond is reflected throughout the book. Taking one day and one life experience at a time, Rick finds himself at many crossroads, where doors opened serendipitously, it seemed, throughout his life, and he eventually was appointed AlaskaÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s first Filipino magistrate.
