They maintain a growing library of newspaper clippings, personal photographs, and audio and video recordings, as well as acquisitions from the defunct Pontiac Latin Affairs Office. Future plans encompass cataloging the archives of the Azteca Boxing Center, a local boxing training facility. Origins Martha says she was prompted to begin the project after trying to organize her husband s old papers. H. Tom s Padilla Hector Padilla , a native Puerto Rican, had passed on and she felt that the history contained in papers from his tenure as the first Latino city commissioner, as well as lobbying for migrant worker conditions and his efforts in forming the Hispanic Congressional Caucus , were important to the community and needed to be put somewhere.

Fear that the records of who has done what would be lost spurred Willie Martinez and others to join Padilla in gathering stories and history of the Pontiac Latino community at large.

Under most statute s, such wills can only be made during a person s last sickness, must be witnessed by at least three persons, and reduced to writing by the witnesses within a specified amount of time after the testator s death.
