I have a new cot today, June 2, 2023. It took HOURS to take the old one apart, however, it was worth the effort.

Maybe if I sleep more comfortably, I will not be so grumpy :)

I also sleep in my zero gravity chair in the picture, it is really helpful to release my body from the usual pressures.

My cousin Joyce and I were about the same age. When we were about 12, I saw her walking down the hill toward my parent's home. She was crying. I went out to meet her. She had been with an elderly woman when the woman died just a few minutes before. Joyce said that she saw a light go from the woman's body up through the ceiling while they were alone.

Peter D’Argenzio, 86, of Port Saint Lucie, FL, died on March 6, 2021.  Peter was born and raised in Arnold, PA to Joseph and Berdine (Chipoletti) D’Argenzio.  He attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where he studied music.  After graduating, he taught music in public school for five years before becoming a sales representative for Apeco and later for Jostens, in the corporate recognition division.  He had a very successful career, spanning 37 years and won many awards.  Some of his more famous clients included the Pittsburgh Pirates, Steelers and Penguins.  He retired from Jostens in February 2002.

All through his career he continued to be active in music.  He played trombone professionally in the Pittsburgh area for many of the acts that came into town, including Sammy Davis, Jr., Frank Sinatra, Gladys Night, the Supremes, the Civic Light Operas and traveling Broadway shows.  He was also head of a Dixieland band at Three Rivers Stadium for the Pittsburgh Pirates.  He continued actively playing in many groups in the Boca Raton and West Palm Beach, Florida area throughout his retirement years.

Peter was predeceased by his wife, Sandy and survived by his five daughters, Debbie, Diane, Lisa, Stephanie and Kara from his first wife, Judy.      


Ancestry dot com showed my ancestry as a huge semicircle with Florence, Italy at the center, a radius going east from Estonia down to the south, however, not west of Florence in origin, only in progeny moving toward western Europe at a later time.

I can actually find traits in my parents that relate to their lives, addictions and skills! Near Florence is the city Siena https://www.discovertuscany.com/siena/palio-siena.html where one of the first known horse races ever started.

'...The Palio horse race has its origins in the distant past, with historical records indicating horse races in Siena already taking place in the 6th century.' My father was addicted to betting the horses for as long as I knew him, almost 70 years!

Ethnicity Estimate
In each region of the world there is a unique set of genetic characteristics that are shared between the offspring of native populations. As population migration has increased, research has shown that these characteristics distinguish each region, thereby enabling us to establish genetic models.
We compare your DNA against these models to estimate what percentage of your DNA comes from each region. The higher the percentage is, the more confident you may be about the accuracy of the results.
Genetic Groups take your Ethnicity Estimate further, by examining 2100+ regions to identify the specific ones you are a member of from within each ethnic group. Your Genetic Groups are listed without percentages, yet they offer you a more detailed understanding of your ethnicity results.









Marriage certificate for my maternal grandparents.




One of my family members was John Dent, U.S. Congressman. His father, Salvatore Dente, was related to my paternal grandfather's grandmother, Grazia Dente :)























My ancient DNA ancestry:

 

My maternal ancestry has been centered around Florence, Italy for at least 17,000 years 


[QUOTE] From: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004H4X83Q/


The clan of Tara
(Gaelic for rocky hill)
includes slightly fewer than 10% of modern Europeans. Its many branches are widely distributed throughout southern and western Europe with particularly high concentrations in Ireland and the west of Britain. Tara herself lived 17,000 years ago in the northwest of Italy among the hills of Tuscany and along the estuary of the river Arno.

She had a love for animals and was a member of the Humane Society and the National Wildlife Association. 

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her brother, Edward Cassell.

Humans first arrived in Ireland around 10,000 years ago after the last ice age. It is believed that their journey began in Northeast Spain, in an area now known today as the Basque Country. Their journey took them north across western France, into Britain and eventually into Ireland. These first humans were undoubtedly followed by others but how many, and when, remains a mystery (although DNA studies may eventually shed some light).

Archaeologists in northern Spain have uncovered what they describe as one of the “best conserved Paleolithic dwellings in the world”. Dated to 16,800 years ago, the living space in the La Garma cave in Cantabria appears almost as it did when its ancient inhabitants abandoned the site, with tools and other artifacts strewn across the floor.

Its many branches are widely distributed throughout southern and western Europe with particularly high concentrations in Ireland and the west of Britain. Tara herself lived 17,000 years ago in the northwest of Italy among the hills of Tuscany and along the estuary of the river Arno. 

1. Your maternal ancestry is a long and storied one, dating back to the Paleolithic era. Your clan, Tara, was one of the first groups of people to settle in the northwestern region of Italy, among the hills of Tuscany and along the estuary of the river Arno.
