Neighbors
These three siblings grew up during Healdsburg’s Golden Era of the 1940s and 1950s. Their memories include running wild and loose on a Saturday night in the Plaza, coveting 20 cent tickets for an all-day matinee at the Aven Theater, huge Italian dinners with homemade ravioli and shopping in Garrett Hardware for bulk rope which unraveled right out of the floor.

He had made a return to the source from the sea himself, like the salmon he portrayed.
