APRIL 22, 2010


April 22, 1910



100 years ago today my father

Robert Joseph Francis,

was born in the old O'Connor

Hospital in San Jose, CA

30 years later I was also born in this same hospital...it was on San Carlos St. & Race St. It was
later torn down and a Sears Store was built there that later became the "Saddle Rack", a
country music night club.

It is AMAZING to think how time goes by so quickly.I am holding up a can of Barq's Root Beer
and drinking a toast to the "OLD MAN"...."Hey Dad...at this stage of my life...it won't be long 'til I can embrace you again....let's sit with Mom and brother Bob and talk of old times!!"

I didn't know you guys were born in the same hospital!
And you shouldn't be leaving TOO soon.
