Additional burial information: Petaluma Daily Morning Courier, December 11, 1920 :
"The body of Charles Valento, one of the men that was lynched yesterday morning at Santa Rosa, passed through this city in an ambulance last night at 5 O' clock en route to San Francisco early in the afternoon. Many people saw the ambulance go quietly through here, but did not know it carried the body of one of the victims of the lynchers.
The body was sent to the mother of the criminal, who is said to be under a physician's care. She is 70 yrs of age and is near collapse. She repeatedly calls for her son and moans, 'My Boy, what have they done to you ?'. She had not known he had been in trouble until notified of the death. She then sent Coroner Phillips word that she would take care of the body".
