Owen and Caridad
"After a short outing on July 21 2008, Vallangca returned to the home she shared with Walsh. She was shocked and confused to find a police officer waiting for her to serve her a temporary restraining order and a petition for divorce, signed by Walsh’s conservator, Elizabeth Adler. Three years earlier, after he was diagnosed with Alzeimer’s, Walsh’s children, citing that his disease had rendered him incapable of fully handling his own power of attorney, had hired the conservator, giving her full power of attorney. Vallangca was given five minutes to gather her belongings and vacate her home. She has not seen Walsh since."



Well, the temporary order turned into a ten year
restraining order and the divorce became final.

Thanks to Liz Adler Caridad never saw Owen again.

 Owen J. Walsh died on May 18, 2011


Caridad received a call on May 19, 2011 to advise her of Owen's passing but she was not able to receive any details of the circumstances surrounding his death.  She has since learned that he did not die in San Francisco and that he may have died in Vallejo.
