Otherwise known as reading the obits. Somedays you feel like you just don't fit in anywhere. Imagine the life of Vera Wong, her picture shows a lovely woman born and raised in Shanghai, China and met her husband during WWII. After they married they relocated to Fargo, ND. Can you even imagine it, a young Chinese woman relocating to Fargo, ND in 1946?
Joseph Walter Castillo, a native San Franciscan rode his bike to work. It says he was an avid recycler and general packrat. I picture piles of newspapers piled up and little paths through his house, just enough to get his bike in and out. This does not sound like a good thing to me. Sorry Walt, but...
Then there was Mark Adams another native San Franciscan, he was a member of the Post Card Club. Who knew there was such a thing?
With the demise of Mark and Walt, how many native San Franciscan's can be left? Everyone you meet is from somewhere else.

being part of Walt's family, there is sometimes a scary amount of truth that can be read between the lines. In Walt's case, if it was not for his loving family, that very likely would have been the case.
It is good to see him being relived in some form or another. Thank you for sharing your blog.
