For others, a last name symbolizes tradition, distinction, elegance, power, dynasty, etc.<\/p>\n<p>For this reason I would like to share with you today some of my thoughts and feelings about one of my symbols.

A smile, a shower of generosity to give of oneself always existed. Problems and circumstances exist in this family with the surname Urrea, as in any other family in this world.<\/p>\n<p>What I gained from this family reunion of the Urrea Cousins is that the differences, distance or time does not limit me to share joy, dance, happiness and much love.
