if you saw a little boy running around the store sometimes then it might
have been me. Then again it could easily have been one of my many
cousins. You never know but you and I might have met or as little kids
looked at each other way long ago.
Joseph,
Who knows, maybe all 3 children played together, YOU, Me and John Gonzales at Puentes Brothers store and tortilla factory. John Gonzales lived by Alum Rock, you lived in the middle on 18th street and I lived on the other side in what is called the Burbank district, close to highway 17 and 280. I went to Del Mar High School of the Campbell high school district. John went to James Lick and I don't know what school you went to. Maybe Karma or our ancestors brought us together.
Sorry to hear that you lost part of your finger but since it did happen you will always have that story to recount. Thanks for sharing your photos and stories, goes to show we are more than just names, we are people with family histories and a lifetime of memories that are waiting to be told.
Alicia
