Erivaldo Prates (age 35)

Erivaldo Prates (age 35) is my direct cousin.
His father Edivaldo is my father’s brother. After my uncle’s death 10 years ago, Erivaldo, his brother and his mother inherited the small farm. Through hard work with another farmer, Erivaldo was first able to buy out his brother and then his mother. He now makes a decent living and is able to take care of his wife and their 3 year old son.
