Mr. Joaquin Tusquets Jr.

High School Graduation Day – June 16th, 2004 Dear Mr. Portoraro, Today is an important date for Joaquin. He is closing a chapter of his life and opening the door to his future. Two years have passed; two years in which Joaquin has walked a path, sometimes an easy one, sometimes one filled with obstacles, yet he has been able to continue straightforwardly and firmly so as to reach his objective. He has been very far from home, but he has gotten to know Canada, a magnificent country. We, as parents, can give him advice, but our son will be the one who has to decide. We believe that he will be a man of integrity, with good values, well educated, honest and loyal. However, he would not have been able to acquire such qualities just by the education that we have given him at home or by his studies overseas. A great part is due to having had the opportunity of meeting you, for you have been a good example for Joaquin, his support, his teacher; and we thank you.
Joaquin has great respect for you, and for us you are already a member of the family; so, welcome. We trust you with the education of our children. If we had ten children, we would not hesitate to send them to you in Canada. There are no words to express what you have done for us. I wish that in each country in this world there were a man similar to you; just similar…The world would be quite different, I assure you, do not doubt my words for a minute. Yours forever, Ing. J. Tusquets and Mrs. Maria Jose Ferreiro de Tusquets Barcelona, Spain ~ ~ ~

Dia de graduación de bachillerato 16 de junio del 2004 Apreciado Sr. Portoraro, Hoy es un día importante para Joaquín. Cierra una etapa de su vida y se le abre la puerta de su futuro. Han transcurrido dos años en los que Joaquín ha recorrido un camino, a veces fácil, a veces con obstáculos, pero ha seguido recto y firme hasta llegar a su meta. Ha estado lejos de casa, pero ha conocido Canadá, un magnífico pais. Nosotros, como padres, podremos aconsejarle, pero él decide. Creemos que sera una persona íntegra, con valores, preparada, honrado, leal y eso no se debe solamente a la educación que le hemos dado en casa, ni sólo a los estudios que ha realizado.
Gran parte de ello se debe al haber tenido la oportunidad de conocerle a usted; ha sido un gran ejemplo para Joaquín, un gran apoyo, un gran maestro. Gracias. Joaquín le adora, pero nosotros lo tenemos ya como una persona más de la familia; así, que, bienvenido. Confiamos totalmente en su persona la formación de nuestros hijos. Si tuviéramos diez hijos, no dudaríamos en enviárselos a Canadá. No existen las palabras para agradecer todo lo que ha hecho por nosotros. Ojalá en cada pais del mundo existiera una persona solo parecida a usted, solo parecida….El mundo sería bastante distinto, se lo aseguro, no lo dude ni un solo minuto. Hasta siempre. Ing J. Tusquets y María José Ferreiro de Tusquets Barcelona, España
