Any tattoos with special meaning?

[Gina Angelo]

Do you have a tattoo or tattoos with personal meaning that you would like to share?

 

I’ll start. In my public photos you will see a tattoo on my left shoulder. It depicts the church in a small village in Italy. My family can trace itself back to the 1600’s from the church records. I got inked to honor my Grandfather who emigrated here to give his family a better life than he would ever have there. He spoke no English, had a 10th grade education, but has descendants that have gone to college, earned MDs, PhDs, started companies, started families. The usual immigrant story.

 

I got the tattoo to honor him and to remind me everyday that I carry his name in everything that I do. I would never want to do anything that would bring dishonor to our family.

I have 3 tattoos.  My first was done in the USA in 79….an eagle on my upper right thigh.  My second was a heart and the letters “SS” in the heart.  My third was my wifes name on my left shoulder.  When we divorced i had the southern cross flag done over it and some artwork around it.   Would love to get more done.  Bronwyn
