Julia Dumas passes.

Hi Berendo Folks,

My mom passed away last night after 108 years.  We won't be having a conventional funeral/memorial yet because of COVID concerns, maybe later when things smooth out.  We are taking her to be buried up near Kernville where my Dad and Juli are buried.  

Please pass the word on to any other Berendo folks that you might be in contact with.  Tell them hi from all the Dumas family.

Hope everyone is well and staying safe in these weird times.

Best to all,
Johnny Dumas

Re: Interesting Old photos -now historic...

Hi Karen and Steve,
Thanks for the great old pictures.  That first one of the gas station reminds me of one of Alex's photos of Nelson's garage (see attached) where the price of gas is shown as 9.9 cents per gallon.

Hope you all are staying healthy during these weird pandemic times.

Johnny
