The memories of that day are very vivid in my mind — still — at 49 yrs of age. Getting home from school to find my house sealed shut with a government stamp on the door not allowing you back in, my mother was at the neighbor's house crying, the plane ride to miami, etc. <br /><br />My family loves the Gonzalez family and we have lots of fond memories of time shared together.
