Today is Thursday but it is also the day that Dad would have turned 97 had he lived past August of 2007. So Mom and I are having breakfast at Maria's in downtown Stockton and then heading to the cemetery in French Camp.
Maria's is a half a block east of the Stockton Police Department


Mom had the small Cocido while I had the chorizo con huevos


Maria our waitress, but not the Maria who owns the restaurant packs Mom's left overs


Mom carrying her left overs


The ashes of Grandpa and Grandma Inamasu, brother Thomas and Dad are in the same plot at the cemetery.
Mom leaves flowers and tidies up around the headstone


We had bought Dad a birthday cake so we have that after dinner. The first piece will go on the small plate and be placed at the Butsudan {home altar or shrine}.
