Noeline Gless (1896-1928) was the daughter of Simon Gless (1862-1903) and Juanita Amestoy (1865-1929) of the pioneering Encino clan (see Amestoy Avenue). She married auto salesman Frank E. Gandolfo in 1917 and they soon moved to Tucson. By the time she died, the Gandolfos had relocated to Frank’s hometown of Yuma, where he would take over his dad’s movie theater and get into politics. Little else is known about Noeline’s short life or early death, although records imply that she had a baby in San Francisco in 1927. Whether or not Frank Gandolfo was the father is unknown, but the boy was raised by Noeline’s aunt Elizabeth. As for Noeline Avenue, it was named in 1916. TV trivia: Noeline’s grandniece is actress Sharon Gless (Cagney & Lacey, et al).
