My senior year I was engaged to Larry Hicks who graduated Manzano in '70. That ended (before the wedding) so I was going to go to college. My mother bought a restaurant in Tijares Canyon so I came back home to help her run it.
I moved to Texas to explore some possibilities (to get away from my parents) and spread my wings but I had met someone before I departed Albuquerque that I couldn't get off of my mind.

ou can't beat them, join them so I am an evidence technician with the same department. I have been with the department since '93. Our daughter is a Communications Dispatcher and has been since '93.
I have 10 grandchildren: 5 girls, 5 boys (1 deceased) I love to spend time with my grandkids and they ADORE their Grandpa !!
We lost our youngest son, Travis, on August 1, 2007 when he was killed in action in Iraq. He was 30 years old. He only had 3 more active duties days there then he was going to process out and come home on the 17th !! He left 3 beautiful children (2 boys and 1 girl), a wife and a family that absolutely adored him. We are finding it very difficult without him, but God and good friends will get us through.
