After high school, went to De Anza for a while and then joined the Army. Was stationed at Schofield Barracks on Oahu for 2 1/2 years in the field artillery and got married. My oldest daughter was born at Tripler Army Hospital and in the last few years made me a grandpa two times over. I worked in large appliance repair for a number of years after my discharge and had my oldest son and youngest daughter. Then was out of work and was able to get a job in the waste water field. Was a senior operator at the S.B.S.A. in Redwood City for 13 years got a divorce and remarried to my present and best wife, she’s an ICU nurse at Stanford and was a British citizen until she became an American a few years ago. My new wife and I had my youngest son who is now ten and does some print modeling for magazines and stuff. For the last seven years or so, I changed departments at S.B.S.A. and am now a plant mechanic. We live outside Tracy City limits on three acres with a couple of goats, a flock of chickens and a mated pair of geese and have a new 8 stall barn waiting for the horses my wife wants upon retirement. We are having our house torn up at this time to make it larger and to my wife’s taste as we prepare for our eventual retirement.
