    This is a picture of my paternal great-grandfather (far right) in front of his San Francisco hardware store, Borelli Hardware, in or around 1956. The young boy is my second cousin, Emilio, and the man in the center is my great-uncle, Vince.

      There must be a story that goes with this photo.
      The big guy appears to be telling them something amusing!

      Hi walksoftly, the man on the far left is a guy named Joe, who was the Branch Manager of Bank of America in San Francisco's Excelsior District. If only I knew what he was saying to my relatives! Also, thanks for the "love!"

      Hi toolate2, thanks for stopping by and "loving" this picture!!
