From my vague memory: Mike Cortez

Chupy Monarez lived across the street from me when we lived in La Cuadrilla. I remember going to his house and watching tv. Had to be in the early 50’s. They later moved to Montoya, the little burg past Buena Vista off Doniphan Dr. Shortly after they moved in the early to mid 50’s that part of Smeltertown was torn down.
