Mom graduated in 1939 and was active in many sports - even earned a 'letter sweater' which my grandmother shrunk in the washer...mom was not happy. She attended USC and almost graduated but married Raymond Mortara in her last semester. My mom lived in South Pasadena for her entire life and attended Lincoln School, the SP Junior High, and of course, SPHS. She worked at Chile Ville Restaurant which was founded by her father in 1922. She loved South Pasadena and was proud to be a Tiger.
