Family struggling with loss after raging fire burns house down in Milpitas

There was no one else home at the time. His brother, Galdino Rosas, had gone out to see a movie with the rest of the family. But Efren had stayed behind, wanting to relax. When the crackling sound got his attention, Efren turned to see a wave of growing flames moving toward him. He quickly got himself up and pulled himself into his wheelchair. Then he wheeled himself out the front door of the house, the growing fire…

Letter: An-Jan Feed and Pet Supply will be missed
September 15, 2023 Dear Editor, An-Jan Feed and Pet Supply will be sorely missed. An-Jan has been my family’s go-to since 1984 when I moved to Milpitas. We have used their vet services, and bought all of our cat, dog, bird, and lizard supplies from there over the years. Aaron has been at An-Jan as long as I can remember. He has always been friendly, professional, and knowledgeable concerning our needs…even the time our newly acquired dragon lizard and the crickets we fed him were covered with ants one morning! He knew exactly what we needed to do to prevent another episode. Whew! An-Jan and Aaron are synonymous. An-Jan Feed…
