In 1972, Felix Garrido was a former prisoner of war, a drug lord and a father of two young girls. Felix leaves his young family in California and returns to his native Guam, promising to come back for the girls but never does. Some 20 years later, his daughter, Teresa Garrido Roberts, began a search for him and finds him murdered on Guam. While the circumstances of her father’s death were heartbreaking, Teresa writes proudly of her CHamoru heritage.
