Full title:Here are Mineko Hirasaki of Gilroy in the foreground and her sister Fumiko at the fish pond of the beautiful family residence on their 550-acre vegetable farm. Voluntary evacuees to Grand Junction, Colorado, the Hirasaki family returned to Gilroy--the first to do so--in April this year. Kiyoshi--Jimmy to his friends--is one of the large operators in the Gilroy Section. The entire family is back in the home except Manabi, the 22 year old soldier son who is overseas, and Michiko, a freshman at the University of California, Berkeley Campus. The address is Route 1, Box 156-F, Gilroy, California. Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru Gilroy, California.
