Sherry Leslie (Talbert):  

I was born and I grew up in Sunnyvale/Cupertino. I went to Homestead High School but I did go to Sunnyvale High School for a couple of months in my freshman year as I moved in with my grandparents but then went back to Homestead In the last half of my senior year at Homestead, my family moved to Vallejo which was very traumatic for me. i was not allowed to finish school with all the kids i grew up with. In 1966 i graduated from Vallejo Senior High School, but because I was in the middle of the year, I am not in the yearbook. There were two others at Vallejo who were in the same boat, Karen Yaeger and Jeannie Howard so we palled around together. I did have another friend named Teodora who lived down the street from me and I was at her house alotl. Had great food at her house and great friendship. She passed away a couple of years ago.. I have lost so many people that I use to know. I mostly remember my classmates at Homestead so i am registered with both Homestead High School in Cupertino and Vallejo Senior high School in Vallejo. I don't remember many students at Vallejo but I was hoping someone remembered me. I was not all that memorable. I hated Vallejo so much because I missed Homestead so much. I have done numerous things over the years, mostly secretarial work, but I got to live my dream job as a Hospice nurse in Washington. We moved back to California in 2011 so I do not work there anymore and gave up nursing. I live in American Canyon and worked at a funeral home as an office manager and funeral arranger. I am married to a very wonderful person and have been married for 45 years. Unfortunately, he is now 92 ...Expand for more
