Her father came from a wealthy family who had success with their vineyard business. Mr. Di Campli also had a love of cars and motorcycles and actually raced motorcycles, living life full out. Mother Maria, an industrious, creative, independent woman, had a greater impact on her life than anyone else. Ms. Richman%u2019s creativity could easily have come from her mother, who was a designer, pattern maker and seamstress.In Italy, her parents secretly started seeing each other. At that time society and her family%u2019s heritage had very conservative views on dating. Her father never committed 100% to the relationship. When her mom got the opportunity to go to Canada, she took it. She boarded a passenger liner to Canada, then rode the train from Halifax to Vancouver. Once at her new hometown, she began working as a seamstress and pattern maker. Her parents wrote to each other, yet while in Vancouver another man proposed to her mom. When her dad found out, though he was still in Italy, he took Maria%u2019s sister to the church and married Maria by proxy! When he finally went to Vancouver to be with his new wife, he loved it as much as his wife and they never left. He continues to love the outdoor life that Vancouver offers, he is an avid sportsman and big hockey fan: Canadian through and through.I had the opportunity to talk with the delightful Doriana Richman. Ms. Richman was born to Italian parents in Vancouver Canada and lives the American Dream in Malibu California. When asked which of the three countries most describes her personality, she said, %u201cI am 100% Italian, definitely.%u201d Does she cook? Yes, she does cook, but says she prefers people to cook for her.She and her husband of 22 years, Roger, have two children, and three dogs, the American Dream.She stammered a bit when I asked her to describe her husband. She finally nailed it. %u201cHe is an incredible example of what it is to be a good person.%u201d Both of her children share her passions, her son is in the family business with mad motorcycle skills. Her daughter has a beautiful equestrian talent, like her mother.When Doriana speaks of parents, her tone changes and her voice becomes full of emotion. Her parents%u2019 love story clearly has made an impression on Ms. Richman%u2019s heart and life perspective. When I asked her to tell me more about her parents, she said, %u201cDo you have time for this?%u201d It was obvious at this point this story was deeply personal to her and a story she was proud to share. Oh, had time! She had my interest and I was intent on hearing her parents%u2019 story.Photo Credit:Paul Papanekwww.paulpapanek.com
