Donald Greene:  

Life Many of you know me as Don Goetz. My brother, David Greene, accepted to be adopted by our stepfather George Goetz and had his name changed to David Goetz. I chose to keep our fathers last name, Greene. During my years at ESHS I chose to use the name of Goetz. The 1965 ESHS Year Album shows my name as Don Goetz, but my diploma has my birth name of Donald Greene. After ESHS I joined the military, became a USN hospital corpsman. In July 1966 I was sent to Vietnam with the Marines as a Fleet Marine Force Combat Medic with India Co, 3rd Bn, 4th Marines, and 3rd Marine Div, Recon Bn. I was wounded January 1967 and spent five months in the hospital in Yokohama, Japan. In July 1967 I was discharged from the hospital and stationed in Okinawa at USMC Camp Courtney until September 1967. I returned to USA in September 1967 and was discharged from active duty in October. In 1968 I went to work for Western Airlines and also took classes at El Camino Community College. While working for the airlines I developed a yearning to travel. In 1971 I sold everything and spent the next twenty months backpacking Europe and North Africa. That experience still provides spontaneous memories which makes my heart skip a beat and provides a smile on my face! In late 1972 I returned to Southern California , settled down a bit, rejoined the academic life and managed to graduate with a BA in Business. While attending Cal State Northridge I met Jonee, my wife to be. We were married in January 1975. Jonee blessed me with two wonderful and beautiful daughters: Courtney in 1980 and Ashley in 1983. I spent 23 years working with Becton Dickinson Medical in various sales and marketing positions in San Francisco, Kansas City, Salt Lake City, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. As an investment in 1988, we bought a townhouse on the golf course in the comminity of Silver Lakes located in Helendale, California with the intention of living there when we fully retired. I took early retirement in from Becton Dickinson in 2002 to take an opportunity with Biosensors International, a medical start up company. It was a lot of work, but has proven to be definitely worth the effort. Throughout our many corporate relocations Jonee also pursued her own successful career as a free-lance reporter and magazine editor. She is very active in USTA Tennis and was the Ambridge High School girls tennis coach while we lived in Cranberry Township, PA. Courtney married in 2002. In 2004 they presented us with our first grandchild, Brendon and in 2008 presented us with another grandson, Brody. Courtney and Justin separated in 2009 and disolved their marriage. Courtney graduated from Nursing School and is now an RN. She and the boys live n Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania. Courtney is engaged to Rob Boros and they plan on getting married early in 2013. Ashley attended University Pennsylvania, Slippery Rock, on a tennis scholarship and graduated in 2006 with a Business Com...Expand for more
