Dear Patty:
We have never met but back in the mid-late 1990’s I along with other church members use to visit and halped with the construction of El Sauzal. Iuse to live in Orange County California but the group that came down to the orphange back inthe mid 1980’s was from Lake Avenue Congregational Church (singles) in Pasadena CA. On ocassions, I look back at my many photo’s of the work we use to do at the orphanage. I am now living in Fort Myers Florida, and decided to view your website. Maybe sometime I will send some old photo’s of the old group. It is intresting to note that I have never met Roy K, but we worked at the orphanage before Roy was associated with the orphanage. As late as 2000 we, a group of us painted the mess hall outside with red and beige paint.; you should see my photo’s! We were the opnes who started the construction of the Dentist Office you now use. In fact I remember that all of us ‘guys’ slept in the dentish office on the concrete floor during construction many years ago. the second story of the orphanage was not even present at that time. My friend and I did the wiring from the water tower out back to the orphanage back aroudn the early 1990’s.
Well, I could go on and on, but I will close for now. I have a great photo of myself and Mr. Espinoza Sr.
Thank you for your time;
Jim

Dear Jim,
Thanks for your comments. It sounds to me like you have alot of memories from El Sauzal! My first trip was in 1989. I also have many memories of projects. If you were on construction of the dental office - which was there when I began visiting, how long have you been visiting? A LOONG time I think!
I would greatly enjoy any photos that you had to share. I use the photos I receive on the web page, blog, our newsletter, et cetera. I especially appreciate the older ones…I don’t have as may of those.
Are you on our mailing list? Would you like to receive our newsletters?
By the way, I would love to see your great photo with you and Ramon!
Muchas gracias, Jim,
Patty
