Gary with his certificate.
Gary is now a US Citizen! He has been thinking of doing this for a long time. Not too many benefits. But now that he has lived here over 20 years why not! Now he can travel and not get bugged by the customs agents for not being a us citizen.
There were 173 people taking their oath that day. Out of 173 people, 43 different nations were represented. Gary looked like the only person from England. Seattle is defiantly a melting pot of people. It all went really well and they had a short movie welcoming everyone and a message from President Obama. It was very crowded and lots of people taking photos. We got there just in time to get a chair to sit in the back row. Lots of people had to stand for the ceremony.
We are glad that Gary is here to stay in the USA! He still is a British citizen also, just in case :-)
