My parents, Aunt Maria and Uncle Joe were good friends since young adulthood. They went through WWII together, came to the U.S. separately, then found each other through the L.A. Chinatown grapevine. I feel like I grew up with Aunt Maria, Uncle Joe and their family, as well as the other two families shown here. We got together most weekends for fabulous meals, before and after which, the older generation played majong and us young-uns just played. This group became affectionately knows as the Majong Gang. Aunt Maria was a big part of my life and I will miss her.
