This blog is about my father, Stanley Cruz Lopez and his family, the Lopez family of the Lopez Ranch in Culver City. Much of what I am writing has been told to me from my uncle, Bernie Lopez, as my father Stanley passed away in 2014.
My fathers parents came here from Michocan Mexico. Soon after in April 1942, Eluterio and Arcadia Lopez, my grandparents, were offered the Maruyama farm as the family was to be interned. Afterward my grandparents leased to the land from the Maruyama family. In around 1944, the Lopezs bought the land for 45,000.00. This is the beginning of the what we all know was The Ranch or fondly called by nearby residents, the Lopez Ranch or stand.
My name is Veronica Lopez Bruce, I am the 3rd daughter of Stanley Lopez. The publisher of this blog is not related to me. We had no males that lived in our family, two died in 1956 and 1958 so I believe that the publisher of this blog is not the child of my father. He gives no name, no date of birth nor a photo. The posts are truthful but there are only girls left in our family. Who is hiding behind these posts?
