Boy, we need someone in TJ to help with this is what it sounds like to me.
Are they trying to sell the house or it is just in need of urgent repairs?

Ferna's daughters and family
Blanca, in my exchanges with whom I believe to be the eldest daughter, it appears that they intend to stay as long as it is possible. She was, as I
said a couple of weeks ago, trying to find decent employment. Another family member, and I apologize for not recalling more detail, will or has moved
in to help the girls.
Ken Cooke and his friend Gabriella are probably the best contact persons. I understand from Ken that Gabriella has local Tijuana contacts.

Fernando was a good man. The toy drives he organized were wonderful. But boy did he manage to get himself in some deep do do crossing the toys and
bikes to give away.
The border rules and the game we were all familiar with for so many years had new rules, enforced rules no less, and we all learned new lessons,
expensive ones at that, about this new border, quickly.
Yet no matter how deep the do do was, he managed to keep his happy positive attitude front and center. And somehow, usually thanks to Doug and Baja
Bound Insurance, he managed to bail the goods out of customs and get everything across and given away to some very deserving and appreciative people.
Well almost everything.
Wonder what happened to those 200 soccer balls from China with Pakastani paperwork? ?

Some people leave a wake in their passing. This man leaves a void.
Hopefully his acts in life of charity will be carried on in his
remembrance. D.E.P.
