Charles's Story
My name is Charles (Chalie) LaFontano and at the present time I am living on a small ranch in Elizabeth, Colorado. I was born in North Philadelphia, April 25, 1942. I attented St. Mary of the Eternal grade school from 1947 to 1955. I then went to Roman Catholic High School from 1955 - 1959. I played Basketball, ran Track and was on several school committees. After HS, I enlisted in the US Air Force and was stationed at Westover AFB in Springfield, Massachusetts. While there I attened the University of Massachusetts and graduated compliments of the AF in 1965 with a BBA degree.
I had a try out and a brief career with the New York Jets...Expand for more
in 1965 as a wide reciever and it ended quickly after getting seriously hurt in a pre season game against the Oakland Raiders. I then entered the private sector as a Federal Agent with the US Customs Service. I worked with the Government until I retired in 2004. I was married in 1967 to a wonderful girl from Roxborough, PA, and this past September marked 41 years. I moved to Colorado in 2000 to be closer to my son and grand daughters and I think that brings you right up to today.
After retirement, I took on a part time job as a Loan Officer here in Elizabeth and I finally put my Business Degree to work only fourty years after the fact.
