It was on Christmas Day, 1925 when the Saint Francis Hotel in Susanville opened its doors to its west wing expansion. Work began in September. While it only added an additional nine guest rooms, six with private baths, it allowed more complimentary features. Not only were the lobby and restaurant facilities more than doubled in size, adorning the top floor on the Main Street side was a balcony. The balcony was removed by the Goni family in the 1950s.

Hi Tim
So sad about the Saint Frances.
This would be a great book now with all the local history and with the Goni Family here for details.
Seeing the many comments on Facebook about memories they had you’d have a big interest.
One of my favorites is the friendship with Leroy established there😊. Irene
Hope you are doing well
