Family history living in South Pasadena
My family moved to South Pasadena from Lincoln Heights in 1956 when I was 2 years old. I had an older brother, Felix (SPHS 1961) and older sister, Gail (SPHS 1962). I moved out for college in 1972 and never moved back. My brother and his family now live in the house where we grew up so I get back to South Pas almost every year.
