This is a nice picture of my Mother's Brother, Bruce. He was a good friend to me. He was short and maybe had a little bit of a short man's complex. He was a boxer and I understand at one point he was a contender in the amateur ranks in California. He was in the war. I think I mentioned that. Came back and opened a Cleaner business in Reedley. I think he did very well. He had two kids, Randy and Marlene. I was in contact with Marlene when Bruce died, but have lost contact. His wife's name was Ethel. I think he finally wound up in Berkeley with another clothes cleaning business. Maybe he was the one who suffered the most without a father as he grew up. Not sure of that.
