From the coincidental trivia dept: Sylvia Sebastiani passed away

First of all, my condolences to the Sebastiani family on this passing.

Born in Cordelia, Calif., on May 10, 1916, the former Sylvia Scarafoni moved

to Sonoma in 1927 with her parents, who ran a dairy farm in Schellville.

Cordelia. Wow. That's where I live and it's not exactly big, certainly by modern suburban standards. We have a graveyard and stone chapel dating back to the 1850s; my son goes to a school built in the 1940s to replace the original school built in

1856 - which still stands, recently fire-damaged, next door to the "newer" school (good news, the fully modern and much larger replacement school is due to open next fall).

Now I have to go to the Rockville graveyard to look for Scarafonis.
