Latino champion Rafael Morales dies – Santa Rosa, California
Tagged: California, family, Mexico, OaxacaPosted on: December 7th, 2006“Rafael Morales was still a young man, but already had worked as a storekeeper, butcher, barber, musician and baker when he traveled north from his home in Mexico to work at a Healdsburg ranch.
To his family and the people of his tiny village in Oaxaca, he also was a bit of a legend – a man who had served as mayor while still in his 20s and was known for mediating conflicts and bringing people together to build roads or bring a telephone to town.”
