Unfortunately France. I think the French are a bunch of cowards and pussies, and I’m embarrassed to have their surname.

If your family is Louisiana Colonial French or French Acadian, they would have been here long before the French acquired that reputation.

In other words, hold your surname with pride.

Cefalà Diana, Sicily

And yes, there is an unshakable feeling of Mafia presence, if there were such a thing.
