Luis's Story
The years at ASU were great. I moved away after graduation in 1973 to Fontana, California, to teach business classes for 1 year. Before moving on to live in Daytona Beach, Florida, I spent 5 weeks traveling in Europe. In 1975 I was married and gained two young step sons (1969, 1971) who lived with us. We moved around in Florida, Missouri, Tennessee, then back to Arizona where we divorced in 1981. I earned my MBA in 1982 while teaching again at Paradise Valley High and then Horizon and Mountain View. From 1981-1989 I taught shorthand and keyboarding for Rio Salado Community College 2 evenings a week. I finally retired from teaching marketing classes (DECA) at Dobson High School in 2001.
In 1989 while I worked at Dobson High, I married Sam Garcia (...Expand for more
McClintock's class of '68). Sam has 3 children (1974, 1976, 1979) who lived with us in their younger years and 1 grandson (1992).
I am blessed with 5 step children, 6 grandchildren and thousands of wonderful former students, but do regret not having children of "my own."
I now work at the Phoenix Marriott Mesa as an "on call" banquet server. I take advantage of my Marriott travel benefits as much as I can--mostly traveling in the US and sometimes Canada & Mexico! I also substitute teach at Dobson and Mesa High. Currently, Sam and I enjoy living in Mesa. We love Arizona and enjoy doing family activities and visiting all the great places in Arizona.
