In 1951 we also migrated to California but from Oklahoma. We rented the home Next door at 1404 Giahos Avenue to the Ventimiglia family.
They were the first Brooklynites, the first Italians and the first Catholics I ever met. Mrs Ventimiglia was a wonderfully warm person and I became good friends with Gasper, Jack's younger brother.

I first met Jack in my early 20's and remember him as honest, wise, and always standing up for what is right. He was a nice guy but always operated by his principles. He was a good example!
