Daniel's Story
Here is my story. Short form.
I graduated from SGMHS in 1969.
I attended Citrus JC part time 1969-1972.
I worked for Market Basket Stores in Monrovia as a clerk during this time.
I attended UC Irvine 1972-1977, and graduated with a BA in Mathematics.
I met Jan in September 1977. I drove a Fiat Spider, she a Fiat X-19. It was love at first sight. We got married in August 1979.
From 1978 till 1984 I worked as a software engineer for Computer Automation. A now defunct computer manufacturer in Irvine. Jan worked for Albertsons markets in Orange and Huntington Beach. We lived in Huntington Beach at 5th Street and Main.
Jan and I moved to Maui in 1984.
I am employed by the University of Hawaii Institute for ...Expand for more
Astronomy. From 1984-1990 I worked on the Lunar Laser Ranging project. I'm currently the superintendent for the Haleakala Division, and I am the manager and PI for the Satellite Laser Ranging project. Jan managed the Maui County Animal Shelter and was a member of the State Board of Veterinary Examiners. Later Jan became a US Customs Agent.
Jan and I divorced in 1996. We had no kids. I have not remarried.
I finally bought a home in 2003, in Kula.
I can retire from the University with full benefits in 2014. But I would not be able to stay on Maui because of the high cost of living and because I still have a mortgage. So I'll probably work for some years more.
That is all there is for now. There may be more.
