My Mother was from Pacoima and was friends with Ritchie's Mother Connie. When I was 5 years old (1955 -56) and we often ate Sunday Dinner at DEL & JOHNNY'S Restaurant on San Fernando Road in Sylmar, where Connie was a waitress. In the early 1980's I re-met Ritchie's Familys -The Valenzuelas (Paternal) and the Reyes Family as I helped Author Beverly Mendheim in the research for her Book:: "RITCHIE VALENS The First Latino Rocker. His Cousin ERNIE (Reyes) VALENS still performs his Music..
