About me:
I want to build a place where my son can meet his great-grandparents. My grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch always wanted to meet her great-grandchildren, but she died just a handful of years before my son's birth.
So while she didn't have the opportunity to meet him, at least he will be able to know her.

About my family:
My father's side is full blood Sicilian and my mother's side is a combination of Welsh, Scottish, German and a few other European cultures. One of my more colorful (ahem black sheep) family members came over on the Mayflower. He was among the first to be hanged in the New World for a criminal offense he made while onboard the ship.

The following appeared on the "Fear Thy Neighbor" website on March 18, 2020:
In season one of Fear Thy Neighbor, Home's Where the Hearse is the story of James Escoto and Baldomero Fernandez and their conflict in Miami Florida.
The show is described as a three-year feud over land reaches a bloody and tragic conclusion for a young mother in Miami.
Baldomero Fernandez passed away in 2008
He was charged with second-degree murder but was helped by the community who believed in him. They had had a three-year feud over a small patch of land that culminated in Escoto approaching the older man cursing. He shot him until he was out of bullets, hit him with the gun until it was taken away and then beat him with a rock. The grand jury upgarded the murder charge to first degree.

This was my grandfather. He was a quiet man, but as I get older and discover his history, he was a wondrous man. I always thought of him as stern and serious only to go to his funeral and people sharing memories of him bringing his horse in the bar with him, because if he didn’t have to stay in the rain, neither did his horse!

I'm Seventy years old now and I remember my grandfather very well. As a boy of 10 years old my father would take me to pick him up to take him to our home for a visit. This six-foot man with a snow-white afro I am proud to say was my grandfather. he was a quiet man and when he looked at my sister and me his eyes lit up as well as ours. Even my mother was on her best behavior as I remember. I vaguely remember my father's depression when he went home to God because at the time, I didn't understand it all. But I do remember his face too this day. My Grandaddy with the snow-white afro.

I met Norm Swirin when he joined the Los Angeles Guardian Angels in 1984 in Hollywood. He was a librarian in Hollywood, a tennis teacher at Elysium and other places, and an all around great guy and hero. I was the Central Los Angeles Chapter Leader of the Guardian Angels at the time with a headquarters in the Taft Building at Hollywood Blvd and Vine. He networked non-profit organizations together like for example, the G.A. did security for Victims for Victims and Curtis Sliwa gave a speech there. Norm and I were friends for decades until he died. Once I ran beside him when he carried the Olympic Torch on Pacific Coast Highway and handed it off. Norm was a dear friend, mentor, teacher, and hero of mine. He introduced Art Kunkin to me, had me read What Color is your Parachute, loved Ine Rand, got the actor who played Carmine Raguza on Laverne and Shirley to do a voice over for us at Hollywood Animation, because he was his tennis teacher, and many other wonderful memories. He used to like to watch Cheers and drink beer. He was Jewish but most of his friends I think, were Gentiles. God bless you Norm, and thank you for being a part of my life!

My grand mother was a strong woman who raised 6 daughters while my grand father was serving in the air force through three wars. She was a devout catholic , and was a no nonsense kind of woman. You were better off telling her the truth because she could see right through any shenanigans before words would even come out of your mouth. She Loved (and played) tennis (when she was a young lady) ,crossword puzzles ,and was an amazing cook. Highly intelligent ,and a math wiz she could calculate things faster then you could with a calculator. She was a devout Wife , Mother ,and care taker of the family while my grand father was away. There was nothing really she could not do. A solid foundation , steadfast ,stern and loving. Her example has kept with me over the years , and I am a better man for it. I love you Nana.

Maryalys (Torgrimson) Barrett of Campbell, Santa Clara County, California United States was born on September 17, 1939 in Missoula, Missoula County, MT. She was in a relationship with Charles Henry Barrett Jr., and had children Mark Barrett, Susan Barrett, Stacy Barrett, and Greg Barrett. Maryalys Barrett died at age 84 years old on June 13, 2024 at Home in Campbell, Santa Clara County, CA, and was buried in July 2024 at Burial in Oak Hill Cemetery.
Aunt M was my godmother. I remember visiting her and my godfather Uncle Chuck (Charles Henry Barrett Jr.) very frequently at their home in Campbell while I was young. They would always host big family dinners and often featured Chuck BBQ burgers that were absolutely delicious.
A beautiful big family, I still remember today at age 43 when I was a young boy serving as ring bearer at one of their children's wedding.
I always laughed that I had an "Aunt Em" like in the Wizard of Oz, and it wasn't until just now writing this out that I realize I had an "Aunt M."
Rest in piece. Hard to believe I hadn't seen you since Uncle Chuck's passing.

I thank God I knew her, I met her through my buddy Mike Rivera when they worked together at a video store on Ventura Blvd.. I also thank her parents for making her ! I’m also thankful to all her family, teachers, and Churches that she attended for influencing her, her beautiful ways of relating to those around her…. Thank You for this site….

Paul and I were trying to do some trick photography. He was holding the kitten, then it disappeared, and then it reappeared. He was really having fun! As you can tell by the smile on Paul's face, he loved to have fun! I'm so glad I have these little clips. It brings him back to life for a few moments.
