Jean's Story
Life
Two weeks after graduation, I married. Although the marriage ended after 10 years, I gained 3 beautiful daughters. I lived in Carson until 1986 and then moved to Diamond Bar, CA, where I still live.
During my high school years, I wanted to be a secretary. I did that as a temp. for approximately 5 years off and on. I primarily was a stay home mom, as my daughter's were born in 1972,1973 and 1976.
After the youngest was born, I worked part time as a waitress, i needed to spend time with adults and this job worked great, as the place i worked, was the LAPD Academy and the restaurant was closed on weekends, holidays and two weeks at Christmas. During the summers, I took the kids to the Academy where they spent the day in the pool while I worked.
During that time frame, I met a woman, who told my about my next job to be. I became a Traffic Control Officer for the City of Los Angeles, and then went on to become a Sergeant working the Special Events Unit....Expand for more
I loved it, as I planned and deployed for all the special events in the City, this ranged from a 1 block street closure to the LA Marathon, Emmy Awards, Hollywood Christmas Paraade. I met some wonderful people, including my current husband of 13 years. He worked for LAPD as a Sergeant.
I stll work for the City, but for the last 3 years, I have worked as an Adjudication Hearing Examiner, I listen to people who want to contest parking tickets, or the fact that their vehicles were impounded and then I render a decision.
I plan on working for a few more years and then my husband and I want to buy another motor home and travel for a year or two.
My daughters have given me and my husband 4 granddaughters and 1 grandson and my step-daugher, has given us 2 grandsons. We enjoy them all alot and spend time with them whenever we can.
We love to boat and rv, read, work puzzles and garden.
Jesus Christ is my my rock and through him, I have been truly blessed.
