Here’s our last selection of photos from Patterson/South School, with a few in color. For those interested, the book this website supports, Vista Del Mar, a memoir of the ordinary, written by me and published by Counterpoint Press in 2016, has many more images of south Redondo as well as reflections on growing up in this beautiful area. It’s available on Amazon. Thanks for dropping by! Hope you’ve enjoyed the pictures.

I went there 3rd grade through 6th grade. The years were 1947 thru 1951. My favorite teacher was Mrs. Mallory. Great memories. Dick Vaupel
