Circa 1948 in Santa Cruz California, Beverly Washington and Aldo Scoffone enjoying the beach. They would later marry, have children and grandchildren, and spend their lives together in the San Francisco Bay Area.

After the Great Depression and World War 2, relaxing moments like these were exactly what this generation needed.

So sweet
RIP
Rest in peace Bev. I'll always remember the many Christmas gatherings with you and the entire Scoffone clan at the home in Monte Sereno. You were a part of my family as I was growing up.

I'll remember the many meals at La Hacienda and La Riconada...The time I gathered a few friends during high school to serve as valets for an event you held where I *almost* got to drive a Bentley for the first time. The time I house sat for you while you were on some adventure.

And I'll always remember one of the last times I saw you as a child and I shared that I wanted my wife to live a life like yours. You said "Al takes care of me VERY well". Well my friend, my wife thanks you for the example you provided ;)

You are one of the last of this generation that saw San Jose evolve into what it's becoming. You made it to 92 and almost outlived them all.

RIP.
