Fred's Story
Left here April 1966 by a bus on my way to Montgomery for induction into the Navy. I can remember "Hey You, get off of my cloud" by the Stones playing on the small transister. I teared up and knew I would miss everything.
Spent 4 exciting years in the Navy with the last three aboard the USS Kitty Hawk CVA-63. Hit many ports of call including Hong Kong, Tokyo, Sasabo, Tachikawa, Hiroshima, Guam, Philippines, as well as Hawaii, Seattle and Bremerton Washington.
Discharged in San Diego and moved to San Jose, CA where I went to college, raised my daughter, and worked in a Publishing Company (Silicon Valley Publications) as a Sales and Marketing Rep during the apex of the computer and software industry in the early 70's through the 80's.
Loved vacations in Mazatlan, puerto vallarta, Cabo San Lucas, Hawaii and of course FWB. Spent much time in San Francisco going to ball games at Candelstick, art galleries, roller skating in Golden Gate park, Sausilito...Expand for more
. Hiking in Yosimite, skiing in Tahoe and hangin at the beach in Santa Cruz.
In the late 80's I noticed a large portion of the software business going overseas and I decided to move back to FWB. It took me 2-years before my daughter and I finally moved back.
Found a water front townhome and spent about a year just boating, swimming, clubbing and looking up old friends, which unfortunately, most had left, and just enjoying before going back to work.
I was single for 26 years when I met my wife and I have been happily married for 10 years now. I have a beautiful daughter who gave me 3-grand kids and a wonderful son-in-law that files F-16's. I have another beautiful step-daughter who recently graduated from the University of Kentucky and will most likely end up in New York working in the fashion industry.
Not much else to say other than you might find me on the beach down by the El-Matadore sitting under an umbrella with friends and sipping a beer.
