Herb Caen once wrote in his daily column that Gilroy is the only place in the world where one can marinate steaks by hanging them on the clothesline. All made possible by Don Christopher.Rest in peace.

To the Christopher family, please accept my deepest sympathy on your loss. Yes, I did roll down the windows in Gilroy and smelled the wonderful aroma of garlic. I was a guest of a friend to the Garlic Festival in 1999; my friend played bass in the Shaboom band which was a big attraction to the festival...Rest easy, Mr. Christopher.

Your contributions will be remembered.

Contributed to the food industry.
