|---|---|---|
| 1940/05/07 | A "gringo" was born in Ft. Wayne, Indiana ... ME! |
|
| 1942/00/00 | In 1942, thinking that when I grew up I would have to shovel snow in winter time, I decided to move to Southern California (I took my parents with me).

|
| 1945/00/00 | I remember, sometime around this time, sitting on the cold cement steps of 1629 Bonfair, Bellflower, CA in just my underpants and watching the sun come up...maybe the beginnings of my Spiritual Quest(s). |
|
| 1947/00/00 | As a young child, I often listened to the radio with my folks including swing, country, classical, and popular music. I remember memorizing the words and singing Anniversary Waltz. I still remember most of the lyrics.
See Sonora Marianao 1968/00/04 autobio-1960s.php for a description of an interesting performance of Anniversary Waltz as a mambo. |
