I just read about the loss of Polo, I am sadden to hear that. He was a really nice guy. At Banning my friend and I missed the bus to go home to Dominguez, Polo saw us walking and took us all the way home.
I remember when he bought the old Tip Top on Santa Fe and he had the great Gonzalez food.
Blessings to his family.
