Hello All, I'm searching for my grandfather Bobby Mims and his friend Maurice Simpson. Their last known whereabouts were in Pasadena, California around in 1956. How could I find out which school in Pasadena they attended? I've searched the SSDI and neither are listed. I do feel strongly that they're both are living. Bobby was last known working as a PORTER for the SANTA FE Railway. Bobby was born in 1930 - give or take 1 year. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
