Hello Ms. Berger,

I have been in search of pictures and found them on this site.  Beatrice and Pedro Ximenez were my grandparents.  My name is Mary Jane Ximenez, I am Mr. Arthur Ximenez’s daughter.  If you could,  I need some assistance.  If you have noticed most of the statues are gone or even broken in what used to be my grandmothers yard.  The biggest shocker was earlier this month, we my family and I noticed that the Huge Life size Dino was missing.  When we walked through the yard, there are many sentimental pieces that are missing.  The monkey, the baskets, the alligators.  The baskets were made by my grandfather. 

These pieces were not only a part of Floresville, but a huge part of my life.  We lived next door to my grandmother until I was a teenager, then moved just down the street.  I helped my grandmother make many of those pieces.  She had great pride.  Each piece had a special story with it.

So, if you could help me in may be getting the word out that I am search of these missing pieces.  My father has reported this to the Police Department as stolen.  If they were stolen I would like to try and send the message out to who ever took them, that these are not just a piece of cement that is up for the taking.  And perhaps we can make a point, and maybe, just maybe, we could get them back.  The Dino has really upset my father because that has been in the yard since he was at a young age, and all generations of my family have pictures on the Dino with my grandmother. 

I would greatly appreciate any help or information.

Thank You,
Mary Jane Ximenez
