Here is the Santa Rita story. Till my great grandfather's (Álvaro Camilo Policarpo de Santa Rita Vaz) time we were all Vas. All my grandfather's older brothers were dying at birth or very young. One of his pirest uncles brought from Rome a statue of St. Rita and installed it in a chapel built within the house grounds and vowed to add Santa Rita tot eh family name is the next male survived. My grandfather was the first to survive. Otherwise I wouldn't be writing this mail! So, Policarpo down we are all Santa Rita. --Luis Santa Rita Vas
