What I've been doing since 1975:
I worked for Inspiration twenty years. Got tired of all the lay offs and
strikes and went into sales of manufactured mobile homes. When the market fell
out I worked as a pipe fitter and maintenance mechanic for five years. Then
decided I wanted to be my own boss, went to refrigeration school and started my
own business in 2003. After a couple of years my wife and I decided it was time
for her to come aboard as I needed an office manager. Now I'm still not my own
boss! We like to camp with our friends and family. We take the sandrail out
speeding around. We like to attend Suns, Cardinals and Diamondback games. We
recently moved out by the Superstition Mountains on an acreage so we can get
horses for the grandkids and us. Stay busy with a large family of children and
grandchildren.
Memories of MHS:
I remember first grade playing kick ball with Greg Sims and other kids.
Kicking the ball into the pit before the bell would ring so someone would have
to go get it. I remember the George Washington Elementary School. Sliding down
fire escapes, the overpass, burgerhouse and the burros. Miami High School, a lot
of good memories. A lot of close friends, bowling alley, football games and one
of my best memories is going to lunch one time and Coke wasn't allowed off
campus. We were in his brothers car which had no speakers in the back. Coke was
in the trunk speaking into the speaker cover saying, this KIKO in Globe/Miami
Arizona and Mr. Ramero looking all around to see who was speaking. Real good
memories.. Favorite teachers, Mr. Romero, shop teacher. Mr. Gorman, PE teacher.
Miss Lee and Miss Cecil, substitute teacher.
