Her love for the ocean and beach brought Winnie and her family to Half Moon Bay, CA in 1976 where she with her family created and shared a beach life filled with fun, silly and loving memories including birthday parties, holidays, family and friend reunions. One of Winnie’s favorite part of her day was being awakened by Richard’s beautiful acoustical guitar serenades. Mom’s favorite advise to us: “Ask the universe “...
