Ron's Story
After high school I sort of hung around, worked at Mattel in City of Industry, went to as many music gigs as I could possibly go to and on December 30, 1970 went to Israel to visit family on what turned out to be an extended 17 year stay which included learning to run a jewelry manufacturing and retail showroom in the Old City of Jaffa, which is a highly traveled tourist destination. The business was owned by my uncle.
After 8 years of that I went to the Tadmore Hotel Training School in Hertzaliya outside of Tel Aviv and graduated from the front office course with expertise in front office accounting [things were not computerized in those days LOL] and was hired as an instructor for on the job teaching at the school's functioning, for profit hotel. Couple of years later was hired by a new 5 star hotel ...Expand for more
in Tel Aviv upon it's opening, The Carlton Penta. Was the night auditor for 6 months and then promoted to the Chief Cashier overseeing all cash outlets including room service, 3 dining rooms, pool restaurant, bar, front office.
After about 5 years of that moved to Jerusalem where I first began to dabble in spiritual matters and met my first spiritual teacher, Noga Lord with whom I studied for a couple years.
Met a beautiful girl and got married at age 34 and opened a vegetarian & dairy food menu restaurant shortly after we got married thanks to my wife [who has since passed]. We had a son and at that point I wanted to leave Israel and raise my son in the US so we came back to California - to the San Fernando Valley where my father resided and other family resided. [I'm tired, will finish this later]
