It was a hot morning in Carrara, this little pearl on the Tuscan Mediterranean. Nuccio Jr. was checking the work schedules at the marble quarry. With a critical eye, he went through the handwritten lists filled out by Ruggero, the plant manager. Nuccio Jr. is proud to be able to take on responsibility as managing director.

In any case, he received news from America that day - an envelope with the clearly recognizable handwriting of the most important reference person in the States: Joseph Ligambi. His father, Nuccio Sr,. had moved to the Land of the Free at a young age, and his successes were also celebrated in Carrara. After all, he had helped the town to considerable wealth.

The letter Nuccio Jr. now received, informing him of his father's death on the one hand and of recent "reorganizations" on the other, he immediately knew how to classify it correctly. A short time later, he had already made the necessary arrangements and packed the most important things for the trip to Detroit.

Nuccio always had a faint feeling that he would one day be able to follow in his father's footsteps.
