Joseph's Story
Life
Well letÂs see. IÂm a single dad of two great kids ages 10 and 6. They are my life and I love being their dad. ItÂs great to just take them away on mini getaways to places like San Diego or Disneyland. ItÂs also great to coach them in sports or just do school work together. But one of my favorite times is when we set up the family room like a movie theater with pillows and sleeping bags all over and watch movies with home made pizza and popcorn. I was married to a woman who I thought was my best friends for almost 13 years but it all came crashing down when she turned 40. (Can you say mid-life crisis) She decided that she no longer wanted to be married so went our separate ways. For the benefit of the kids, I wanted to try and work it out but she had her mind made up so no mater what I did we were getting a divorce. Oh well, I wish her peace and happiness.
Now, what about me? IÂve been a golf professional since 1987 and currently teach at a golf course in the San Gabriel Valley. After high school I played bas...Expand for more
eball at PCC and then rookie baseball for in the Reds organization for two years but I hurt my knee playing basketball in the off season so there went the baseball career. I worked for American Airlines for a couple of years while I finished at PCC and then moved to Cal State LA. But then I somehow got into golf professionally and moved my career in that direction. I played in a few pro events in Hawaii but I soon realized that I enjoyed teaching much more then playing for a living. I love my work and feel very fortunate that I can make a living doing what I love and having the flexibility to make my schedule work around my family time.
I still play the drums but it only for fun. I played in a band for a while in the mid 80Âs but it didnÂt last so now I just have fun jamming with my kids.
Most of my current friends are the parents of my kids friends so I would very much like to reconnect with any of my old friends (male and female) from PHS or Muir. Take the time and drop me an email. I would love to hear from you.
