I just received an e mail from Janet Walker, she told me that her brother Don Holmes passed away last Monday. I don't know if you remember Don, but he did go to Ridgeview, and graduated in our class 1963. I remember Don and I use to attend the sox hop dances at Ridgeview and Redwood. Always excited to see the new girls, thinking we would dance with them, instead we stayed with the "guys" and commented. Those were the days! I haven't seen Don in years when I ran into him at the Napa Downtown car show. We talked like the years that passed were just yesterday. Janet wrote that Don had Brain Cancer and he passed away from that and Covid. Just thought I would let you know cause I think its very important to note and remember the good times! Great guy and will be missed.
