"Happy Birthday Sergio Alberto Zamora Rangel" from your friends in Calgary!

Sergio joined our family from June 05-19, 2005 before returning to Mexico. Although we had not anticipated hosting young men at our homestay, we were very pleased with Sergio and he was a fine young gentleman and great ambassador of Mexico.
