Cassandra's Story

Life Hi! Since our 25 year class reunion is quickly approaching, I've decided to try to reconnect with friends from the past. Hopefully, if you remember me (or Eric Messner), you will respond to this and let me know how you are doing. So, as far as after high school, I attended De Anza College for 2 years, then transfered to Foothill College for dental assisting and dental hygiene. Eric and I married in '91 during his 2nd year attending UC Davis for medical school. We had our 1st child, Andrew, now 14 yrs old and attending FHS, in '93. Then, the summer of '94, Eric went active duty with the US Army. We lived in Fort Irwin, Ca, in the middle of the mojave desert, for a total of 5 years. We lived in Dupont, Washington for 2 years in between. We had 2 more kids, Elisabeth (12), and Michael (11), during our mojave desert days. I became a full-time mom during Eric's Army years. We have been back in Sunnyvale for about 6 years now and I am currently working part-time as a dental hygienist, volunteering in my kid's schools and church, and trying to maintain my sanity!!! Life can be so crazy and busy, but it is all so worth it! Let me know how you are doing, School Eric was my biggest crush in high school. He is still pretty awesome after 16 years of marriage! I remember Mr. Saboe in Anatomy & Physiology, he was pretty cool when volunteering in the science lab. Cheerleading was great, especially the friendships and spirit camps. I remember sneaking out at night with friends and christening people's homes with toilet paper!!! College I remember being in class with 24 extremely ambitious women in Foothill's dental hygiene program. We had gone through the spectrum of emotions together and we all survived without killin...Expand for more
g each other. It was a great experience, especially when we drove to San Francisco for clinical internships at UOP and UCSF. The dental students were good to us. We had some great times partying it up in the city! Workplace I remember my first job at Magic Wok on Stevens Crk Blvd. in Cupertino. I worked with Myron Shen on occasion. I also worked at Winchell's Donuts for 2 months, Paradise Bakery for 1 year with Luis Farberger, Kevin Frank, and Sally. Finally, I had enough work experience to land a job with Macy's my senior year in high school. I think Anne Sanow worked there too for a while. I worked there for about 3 years, then progressed to dental assisting and then hygiene. There are some weird dentists out there so be careful. I have seen it all! The first dentist I ever worked for used to pick his ears with Q-tips right in front of the patients before his procedure. So much for infection control and sterile technique! Military Having experience being an Army wife, I can truly say how greatful I am to our troops and their families who dedicate their lives and sacrifice time away from loved ones every day to keep this country safe and secure so we can have the freedom that we take for granted every day. Eric left after 7 active duty years because it really took it's toll on family life. After years of working ER, Sick call, leading regimental surgeon to Blackhorse and being personal physician to the commander on post as well as being chief of internal medicine, it was up to me to play the role of father and mother. It got to the point when the kids never asked when daddy is coming home cause he frankly, wasn't home much. I am thankful that he put in his time, but I am glad we have a much more stable lifestyle now.
