I worked as a cable TV installer back in the 70s and got to install the cable system in the Croce house in Point Loma. Mrs. Croce was very nice and showed me the office where his gold records were and his recording room. Jim had already passed away but it was a lasting memory for me as I was only 20 about 1974 and certainly kept that in my heart.
