Summary/Abstract: Highlighting human becoming forged in the past is a valuable historical fact offering to the present roots, unity and continuity. It appears as a natural necessity, a pedagogical instrument in formation of the new generations. The eclipse of the past by locking historical documents in libraries, archives and their accessibility only to some people, could lead to forgetfulness, ignorance about who we were, who we are and what we must become as individuals and as a nation. Research and reporting of the past related to the personalities who created it increases the possibility of completing temporality with eternity, to the awareness that what we have achieved so far is a manifestation of the sacrificial love of some people, who obeyed God’s will to regain divine paternity by service and dedication to the others.
