Renee's Story
While I was in High School, I was pretty much with just a few friends, Martha Duran, Juanita Hurtado and Faye Garcia. They were all Westsiders. I was from southwest Denver. My boyfriends were Bob Martinez, Danny Lucero and Dennis "Jumbo" Padilla. I married Dennis when I was 21 years old. Being in the concert choir with Mr. Fluckey was the best thing about high school.
My parents moved to Lakewood during the semester break of my Senior year and since we were in another county I had to finish school at Alameda High. I hated it there, since I didn't make any friends there. The only thing that saved me was that I didn't have enough credits to graduate at Alameda, but I did have enough to graduate from West; hence the school districts agreed to let me graduate with my class at West.
After graduating I was asked to go to Elitches by Leo Griffin, but we had family in from out of town so I couldn't go. He left for the Coast Gurad shor...Expand for more
tly after that and I never saw him again. I'd like to find out what ever happened to him.
In the meantime, I worked for the State of Colorado for 30 years; I'm now retired from there. My husband of 32 years got sick about the time I was getting ready to hit my 30 year mark too. He died in April 2003. My dad also died 2 1/2 months before my husband.
I have had a sister that has lived in the Reno, NV area for about 17 years and she had been trying to get me and my parents to move out here for a long time. I talked to my mom about moving and here we are. We've been out here for about five years now. I have two daughters and eight grand children, only two are girls. My youngest daughter and her two boys followed me to reno about four years ago.
Right now I'm unemployed, but looking for clerical work. The job market out here is not very good.
If you have any questions for me, please ask. My life is pretty much a dull open book.
