Delvis's Story
Graduated Cascade 1960. Went to OCE, majored in Education, played football and baseball. Began my teaching career in STAYTON (can you believe it) then moved to Eugene to teach history, coach FB, BB, Bskt B, and wrestling. Began working on advanced degree at the U of O and finished a Masters of Education at OSU. While working on this degree, I became involved in officiating basketball (24 yrs) and baseball (22 yrs). I also began teaching Driver Education at S Eugene HS and Lane Community College. In addition, I also developed an interest in Driver Education teaching and administration. Eventually I had a chance to lead the state DE Association, the National State Directors of DE and served on the board of the American Driver and Safety Education Association. These opportunities were instrumntal in leading me to the Oregon Department of Education where I administered the DE program for seven years.
After 7 years at ODE, I retired and began a career in traffic safety on the private level, working for a manufacurer of driving simulators located in NY. I administered their west and mid-west sales regions for almost 15 years, semi-retiring in June of 2007. I continue to provide specialized training for them in secondary schools, hospitals, trucking and mass transit industries.

en married twice. The first time for 32 years. The second now for 14 years. I have two daughters from marriage one. Oldest daughter is a school teacher in the Silverton SD. 2nd daughter shares a life with her husband and two sons as missionaries in Springfield, MO. I have helped my current wife raise her two children (27 and 21). The oldest currently works at a law university in San Francisco and is waiting to begin her doctor work in Medival History, hoping to become a University Prof in this field . Her second, a boy, is 21 and a senior at the U of O in Sociology, hoping someday to become a police officer. In the meantime, he is heavily involved in rebuilding BMW cars as a hobby which could become his career of choice.
My hobbies include riding my 2002 Goldwing Motorcycle, traveling in our motorhome, watching my favor duck football (season tickets)team and most all major sports from my recliner. The rest of my time is spent being a househusband waiting for my wife to get her kids through school so we can travel.
Coming from a childhood life as a migrant worker, following crops from state-to-state, I have really been blessed and none of it has been of my own doing. The LORD JESUS CHRIST has made it all possible for me and I would be remiss if I did not give HIM all the credit...
