Welcome home, my friend

Jose, 1985
This post is a repeat of what is on Facebook when Jose and family arrived in Rumford
Reason #2 for hosting exchange students: they return. Thirty-five years ago Jose Felipe Ytuarte Nunez arrived in Rumford answering every question for the first 24 hours with "Si." He made a slew of friends, played soccer for the Panthers, saw snow for the first time, and learned to ski race. He also lugged 8 cord of wood into the house with his host brother Allen...and we were still cold that winter! Now, Jose returns to Maine almost yearly with his beautiful family, Noemi, Sofia, and Felipe. They love Rumford and the western mountains of Maine... Welcome home, Jose!
