Barbara Stockwell’s 50 Years in Arivaca
July 1, 2007
It would be hard to imagine Arivaca without Barbara Stockwell. At least, I can’t. She first came here 50 years ago, on the Fourth of July 1957. Her parents, Bob and Mary Marshall, had come down to Arivaca to open a café. Barbara had just finished her freshman year at ASU in Tempe and came to visit them.

I recently served on a committee to study the establishment of a permanent checkpoint on I-19. I experienced this responsibility as urgent and critical as did all the others on the committee. Although we did not agree on the virtues of the checkpoint, our common ground was that we all wanted to help secure the border and keep our neighborhoods safe.
