Nothing like being a proud American ...

When the Moncriefs crossed the border into the United States from Canada on March 1, 1997, it was with the intent of making this country home. They lived for several years in Phoenix, and moved to La Plata County in 2004 when the position opened at All Saints.
Meanwhile, they’d gotten their Alien Registration (Green) cards, started losing their Canadian accents and begun thinking of themselves as Americans.
With their 10-year green cards set to expire in November of this year, they had to act. In April, then they apply for US citizenship.
And they hadn’t really planned on it, but both were invited to stay for the final step of the journey to citizenship – the Oath of Allegiance.
