MICHAEL MICHAELSEN • Special to the Sun
Last Saturday was a special day for Vince Mendiola and his extended family. Vince was named grand marshal of the Basque Festival parade in Winnemucca and everyone got to ride in a vintage fire truck. From left in front: Joyce Mendiola, Vince Mendiola; in the fire truck, left to right, Bev Mendiola, Dave Mendiola, Karen Noyes and Kandace Mendiola; in front, right, Txendoa Cabatbat (baby), Chelsea Cabatbat and Taua Cabatbat. It was a hot June day to wear the Basque wool beret, but Vince and his brother were sticking with the traditional attire.[[In-content Ad]]
