Victor's Story

This is really nice to be able to say Hi to any of you after all these years. As I'm writing this letter I realize how much my High school years had an impact on who and what I am today. We began to go our own ways which is just part of growing up and starting new chapters in our life as we find who we really are. I'll give you some history as to where I've been to where I am now Well as you may remember I had a love of Music during High School.). I really couldn't wait to get out of High School so I could "Become a Rock Star"... Well I did get right into playing Professionally and by the age of 20 I recorded my 1st LP with a Band called Fates Warning. That was incredible ! We toured the US and got to play with some great Metal bands of the 80's. My dream of being in Rock magazines came true and for 4 years I continued recording and touring (even has a video on MTV and one of our songs was featured in a movie called Rivers Edge with Keanu Reaves and Dennis Hopper). The band is still touring and recording today throught the world which is pretty cool. I was married during this time and my wife was expecting our first child. This led me to leave the band as financially it wasn't what I could raise a family on. Jillian was born 7/21/86 and my Son Steven on 8/23/89. Unfortunately I divorced in 1990 (wasn't easy to consider with two beautiful children). I spent the following years trying to be the best Dad I could be and enjoy my children growing up. My daughter is just like me...Expand for more
as she LOVES music. She is now at Tunxis trying to decide what she wants to be (I'm just happy she is in college and know she will do well once graduated) )My son was all sports playing Baseball/Football/Basketball from age 7 till graduating High School. he's now at Central Ct working on his Business Degree. He loves Numbers and wants to get into corporate investments or accounting). I couldn't be happier with how they both turned out and can say we have the greatest relationship. As for myself I decided to put myself through Nursing School after an event with my son in the Hospital at a young age. I became a Registered Nurse in 1995 and immediately began working with the Geriatric Population. I am now a Regional Director for Benchmark Assisted Living and oversee the Nursing Systems in our Connecticut Communities. I am VERY happily married and Living in Portland, Ct in a home my wife and built in 2002. I returned to playing music and built a Studio over our garage where my Band "The Remains" practices and records. We play out 1-2x's a month and it's doing very well. Our wesite is purevolume com/theremains. You can listen to over 30 songs and see some photo's. We're a Classic Rock Band playing the stuff we all grew up on in High School. The singer is fantastic ! We'll I guess that's it for now. I hope I didn't ramble too much. I'd love to hear about your life as well. IIf you find time please write back as I'd love to read over my morning coffee. Take care everyone Victor
