He started the same year and time I joined the Guardian Angels.We patrolled the streets of Punta Gorda at night and helped Convoy of Hope distribute supplies to the victims of hurricane Charlie during the day.This kid is an inspiration for me as well as others I’m sure.I can not believe how good I feel right now after reading this and one of the other articles on this website.There is hope because of all the people like you.Peace and Love

Several media outlets have contacted me. I suggest that you refer them to this web site. They can just copy what I have here and/or call or email me for more information, etc. Thanks.

Thanks for the riveting first-hand reporting. Are you sending these dispatches to any of the local media? Seems like Joel Anderson publisher/editor of the Ojai/Ventura View would devote space to this…

Hi Bob:

Thanks so much for your eyewitness account of events on the East coast! I contacted the Ojai Valley News about covering what you’re doing but I never heard back. Not completely surprising. Did you see the copy of that email? I carbon-copied you on it.

I’m going to post your story on the Occupy Ojai FB page unless someone else has already done it. Keep up the great work!

Well I have been searching for a man I once knew many years ago by the name of Oscar Silvas who was a Marine at the time, I typed in his name doing a search and your organization came up along with a picture and a story stating he played at the Talking stick. Im pretty sure it is the Oscar I once knew, especially because he was from Chicago Ill. The Oscar I knew also played drums and congas. If there is any possible way for him or someone to email me back I would greatly appreciate it. He was a dear friend I have never forgotten about. Thank You… =0)
