Richard's Story

I got married in high school to Donna Nuckols. Remember? Drove a truck and worked heavy construction for 30+ years. Owned my own cabinet making business in Imperial for 8 years(84-91). Economy crashed, didn't get paid for the work I had done, cabinet business crashed. Married twice more and lost my 3rd wife in 1989. She was a keeper. Married again in 2000 to a keeper. Doing fine. I have been envolved with desert racing (Motorcycle) for 20 years. No, you never heard of me. Never made the big time. Just a wanabe. Raced D-38 and Mexico. Got broke up several times and doctors put me back together. Got hurt badly in 96, now I watch. Dumb old guy still trying to gofast. Now we only work a check at the races. We have a winter place in Mexico near an old brother-in-law. Damn this world is small. We try to spend 10 days each Thanksgiving there with the extended family. Loads of fun. Donna gave me 2 sons. Suzy gave me David and when I married Fran she came with Jennifer. I raised her, she is mine also. All grown and on their own. Yep I have grandkids. Not enough, I keep asking for more. Grandkids are expensive! I am semi retired. I am waiting on Crystal to retire. I am doing Construction Managment for an engineering company, tough work.
