Jose and Aurelle lived across Clough Road from my childhood home and grandparents, Lee and Ruby Bishop. They were so kind to my grandmother after my grandpa passed away. Jose encouraged me to start a Basque picnic in Tonopah (funny, because I'm not Basque!), and Aurelle encouraged me to go to the Basque country...never made that. Wonderful people. My condolences to your family.
