At the time of his death, Joan's brother Hal was living in a motel room at the Parkway Motel in Los Angeles, and worked approximately one mile away at the Royal Viking Motel. Click here to visit the Royal Viking Motel page.
The Parkway Motel was built in 1957, and has undergone a few changes over the years. The pool has been removed, and the motel is now called the Casa Bella Inn.
