Delbert's Story

Hi All! Sandi Taylor asked me to tell my story!. Most of you that knew me in Mens Glee, and A Cappella Choir (Mr. Taylors class) knew me as probably kind of shy. I wasn't into sports and generally kept a low profile! I left / got kicked out in my Junior year because I did something so incredibly stupid that although I was allowed to have my pic taken with the senior class in 1969 I wasn't able to graduate with my class. After that I went to Adult classes and did get my diploma in 1970. I went to work for Marie Callendars on Winchester in San Jose until I got drafted in 01/1971. Instead of going into the Army, I joined the Marines in 02/71. I was sent overseas and am a Viet Nam Vet. I worked on and flew in the F-4 Phantom II Jet fighter. I stayed in the Corps until 1979 and left as a Staff Sergeant, when I became a Deputy Sheriff in Adams County Colo. (unincorporated Denver) in march 79, and have been a police officer since then. On March 3rd. 2011 I will have be...Expand for more
en an officer for 32 years! I plan on retiring when I turn 62 in 2013! I have been a road Sergeant, Deep undercover "Biker" I am a Police Firearms Instructor,(Police handguns, shotguns and automatic weaopons), A Roadside Sobriety Test Instructor, a Radar and Lidar Instructor and taught DARE classes to over 1500 kids between 1995 and 1999, and done many other 'wonderful" things through the years. I am presently single and have an 18 year old son. I live on the Oregon Coast in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area and can hear the ocean from my house! I have fond memories of Becky McCrae, Kris Jacobsen, and other friends like Jack Vossler, Jeff Garrett, Robert Sporleder, Pete Gallo, to name a few. I ran into Terry Cooley in Medford when I was an Officer in Talent Oregon about twenty years ago now. I'm healthy, and looking forward to retirement!(eventually!!!) Take care to all!
