Bill Granizo - An Autobiography in Pictures
![]() Grief continued in Guatemala. It was time to move on. Dad went to Mexico to promote Guatemala's heavyweight champion. My second train ride with Mom and Jerry was also with Alejandra as escort. During the trip he and mom decided to terminate their romance. He returned to Guatemala right after our arrival. Since Dorita's death, mom and dad had become very religious but there was a problem going to church in this new country. There were soldiers at the entrances. However, the side doors were unattended thus permitting admittance to those who dared. These anti-God procedures were instigated by ex-president Calles who still controlled the government. He was born in Sonora, Mexico and was the son of a camel trainer for the U.S. Army. Going to Church was frightening. |
