Al Pace with his folks and older brother started it, yes Al had a blue Stingray Corvette, rode in it many times "cruisin' chicks" with Al in '69-'70. They must have sold the restaurant to the Massaminos?
Ross H. replied:
Actually there are four Pace brothers. Al, Jack, John and Leonard. Al and John are in the San Francisco area and Jack and Leonard are still in So. Cal. Don Miller.

Judith McPherson, very interesting info on Jack. Yet, his parents bakery was on the same block, directly across from the theater. It was called Valley Bakery. Both of my parents worked there at different times. At one time, either before or after Jack had the restaurant it was owned by the Pace family, specifically Al Pace.

They were definitely hard workers. As I remember Jack came to Hemet El in the sixth grade from Texas, wearing his western cut shirts. Glad he did so well.
