Welcome to 19 new U.S. citizens

April 20, 2018 12:00 am • Last Updated: April 20, 2018 4:32 pm

I read with reflection and admiration “After hard work and study, 19 become U.S. citizens in Norwich” (April 13). What took place at the Otis Library is an excellent example of all immigrants who truly desire to be included as a part of America and their achieving that goal. I sincerely admire and welcome all 19 who swore an oath to become citizens of the United States of America and to all the others who followed and follow their path. Congratulations and welcome. You remind us all what a privilege being an American citizen is.
