Three generations of Modoc Royalty. In 1978 Brandy Lynn Wilson (Malcolm) was crowned Little Miss Fandango. In 2017 Brandy’s son Richard “Pete” Malcolm was crowned Little Mr Fandango. This past weekend Brandy’s granddaughters Ava and Kloee (who are twins) performed in a duet together, but there could only be one winner. Ava Eleanor Lynn Buckley was crowned Little Miss Fandango 2024 (for their age group). So glad they could all be part of Modoc’s 150th anniversary/Fandango Days Celebrations!!
