Francisco and Maria are looking forward to renew their Wedding Vows at the 2015 Misa del Presidente. They will be celebrating 30 years as Fiesta Aficionados and 35 years as a couple. Our wedding took place March 22, 1980, at St. Charles of Borromeo Church in North Hollywood, California.
Francisco will gladly share,” WE are a Fiesta Family, a family that dances together stays together”. You see, our daughter, Marisol, started to dance at 2 ½ years old and she has not stopped. She became the 1992 Jr. Spirit of Fiesta, 2001 Spirit of Fiesta an 2004 St. Barbara. As a family we have been dancing with her since 1992. For over 20 years, our home was the base for 3 dance groups: Foklor Mexicano de Santa
Barbara, Bailes de Espana and Contradanzas de Alta California.
At this time we no longer dance, but we volunteer for Old Spanish Days. Maria is a Director and has been in charge of : Noches de Ronda, Fiesta Pequena, Parade Announcers, Costume Sale, and Spirits Pre-Auditions.
Our Fiesta photo was taken by Fritz Olenberger at 2014 Noches de Ronda.
VIVA LA FIESTA!
