Ricardo Duane Sieger new arrival

Ricardo Duane Sieger

I WAS BORN: Nov. 4, 2011, in St. Luke’s hospital in Duluth.

MY PARENTS ARE: Duane and Abeth Sieger of Duluth.

MY BROTHER IS: Joshua Casio, 6.

MY GRANDPARENTS ARE: Eugenia Genus Casio of Lapulapu Cebu City, Phillipines; Betty Sieger of Duluth; and the late Ricardo Casio and Budd Sieger.

MY GREAT-GRANDPARENTS ARE: Isabel Genus Igot of Lapulapu Cebu City, and the late Floriano Igot, Fannie Hager and Wallace Hager.

MY PARENTS CHOSE THIS NAME BECAUSE: Ricardo is special because it is my grandfather’s first name.

PARENTS’ WISH OR ADVICE: Be the best Ricardo “Ricky” you can be!

SOMETHING SPECIAL: My parents would say “Don’t be a ‘honey badger’,” when I cried too much. A balance was made with my mom and brother both born in the Phillipines and Dad and me born in the U.S.A., which makes our family special and memorable.
