Acerca de esta escucha
Imagine being born into a well to do family, with plenty of land, and property to have it all taken away 12 years after you were born. This is exactly what happened to Rene’ Ojeda Jr’s family in Cuba when Fidel Castro took over the government in the Revolution.
Now imagine the very difficult decision by Rene’s parents to send he and his younger brother to the United States through Operation Pedro Pan when they were just 14 and 12 years old. They thought it would be temporary, maybe a few months, but now 60 years later Rene’s story is told by his son, Tony Ojeda.
Rene’ is Tony’s first hero!
In this amazing story you will learn what is was like to grow up on a plantation in Cuba in the 1950's. You will see how easily it can all be taken away when a corrupt government comes to power. You will be inspired by the courage of Rene's Uncle Eduardo who was part of the Bay of Pigs Invasion. He was not only courageous then, but also he how helped so many as he spent years in a Cuban prison. Speaking of heroes, the true heroes may just have been Rene's parents who made a very courageous decision that would forever change the trajectory of this family
Tony also shares about hid dad's early years in the United States. Rene' was a boy who worked very hard and was always serving others. You will read about the hard work and dedication it took for Rene’ to save enough money to bring his parents over from Cuba a few years later. You will come to understand how Rene was a hero not just to Tony, but also to his own parents, his wife, and two other children. Rene' overcame so many obstacles in creating a wonderful life for his family. You will be inspired by this story, and come to find out what truly makes a real hero.
