It is a small world indeed ~ I bet we know a lot of the same people in Irvington and in Coronado ~ I worked in Coronado from 1982 until 2001 and lived there from 1991 until we moved to Marco Island FL in 2001 and to Irvington part-time in 2004. My travel agency in Coronado was Travel Services of Coronado at the corner of 6th and Orange... the building is no longer there...

We're planning on heading north that week for Jim's son's 40th b-day get- together. Tell Joanie hello for me. Does she know about Candy?

Hi Helen,
If Rachel knew Amy Elhoff, then she probably also knew my daughter Julie Ruettgers because Julie and Amy were in the same grade, same classes, graduated the same year and were very good friends. They recently saw each other in Coronado for Jessica Settle's wedding. Julie is Jessica's best friend and she was a bridesmaid in her wedding. I'll ask Julie if she remembers Rachel. Julie lives and works in Richmond VA now. This is so interesting!! Liliane

She passed away a year ago last April 5 of lung cancer.

I don't know Brad and Angie Stevens personally but they used to live in Kathryn Etchinson's house just a few steps from where we live. Angie works for a travel agency in Kilmarnock (competition... but I now work from home and still cater to a lot of my old clients in Coronado). Brad and Angie now live behind the Dandelion near Jimmie Lee and Edwina Crockett (do you know the Crocketts?)

Candy was one of the niciest people I've ever met. That was said over and over at her service. I never heard her say a bad word about anyone. My sympathy goes to you and Joanie for losing your mom. Candy deserved to live a nice long life like her.

Jan has cancer too. I don't know what kind but I do know it is slow growing. She lives in the Golden Hill area of San Diego.

They certainly have had more than their share.

Hey there, Helen, thanks so much for your kind words. I appreciate it very much...

Mrs. Battleson:

The City nor CALTRANS had selected any alternatives yet. If and when a preferred alternative is selected, the homeowner(s) would be notified. I have a request in to get the locations of possible eminent domain necessary for each of the options. I do not know if the analysisis detailed enough now to ascertain with certainty the properties but I have asked. I will share any information I get with you.
