My best memory of dear Uncle Frank was when my grandma (his sister) heard anything from him it was forever gospel to her. He once told her that Lathrop Rd. was dangerous and he witnessed a horrible accident there. Years and years later, I was heading out and would be driving through Stockton. She made me promise to not get off the freeway there ever for any reason. I, of course, promised and kept it. My condolences to my cousins and all who loved him. He was a special kind man that we were lucky to know!

I'm so saddened by the passing of Mr. Vargas whom I knew during my high school years. He and Mrs. Vargas were always so welcoming and so kind to me. His special ways will never be forgotten.
Sincerely,
Robin Evans
