There are very Yees in Guatemala. I feel bad that I have lost almost all connections to my chinese ancestry simply because the 3 of us born to Juan Rafael Yee were raised by our Guatemalan side of the family. I once had found the passport that belonged to my grandfather, a very handsome, slim looking gentleman; unfortunately, when I moved from Guatemala to Los Angeles back in 1983, I left everything behind and I lost the only precious item that linked me to my chinese side of the family. My grandpa's passport was left tightly sealed in a glass jar in the now abandoned house where we grew up. I just wanted to share this thought...
