Basiclly, bumed around & worked various jobs 'til '72. Joined army 2yrs, got out & settled in Salinas, CA which is near Fort Ord (now decommissioned) where I took basic training. Met Ginger there, married June '79. Went to work for Ginger's family in farming (apricots & walnuts) before becoming an electronic tech from '81 to 10/11/01. 10/11 was my personal 9/11 when the company I worked for had a big layoff. Since then I've worked at various jobs including big rig trucking. Presently I'm working part time for a small non-profit which provides various services for seniors & physically impaired including transportation which is where I'm involved.

Hey, Dave, isn't it a riot that we were students at Keene School. I know Grace Revilla was too. Becky thinks Phil was there too, but I don't remember him when I was there. Was Mrs. Monroe your teacher too? I can remember seeing her and Mr. Monroe sitting at their little kitchen table eating their lunch together. I also remember tripping on a root from the big tree that was in the play yard and getting a gaping cut on my knee. I still have the scar! That was a cool school!
I was so glad to see that you had signed onto the web site! We went to the Prom together our Junior year. I wasn't sure I was going to go or not. I was still nursing a seriously broken heart but I am SO glad I went with you. We went to White's Cafe in Mojave to eat after the prom--do you remember that?? How is your brother Jeff??
Take care!!

Sorry I missed your birthday. I was out of town and didn't have access to my computer. Hope you had a really great day and maybe you are still celebrating today! Take care.
I want to wish you a nice Memorial Day and thank you for your service to our country. Freedom isn't free and a lot of our guys didn't make it home. So glad you did!!
With deepest respect to all our guys ( and gals ) that serve to make our country safe!
