hen I joined the marine corp in 1989.I stayed in the corp for 4 years and then got out.My first job when I got out was in a retail furniture store which I hated!So then I left the store and went to the warehouse and started delivering furniture.It so happens I had a delivery at a deputy sheriffs house and he told me they would soon be hiring.So I applied and a year later I got the job.So that is what I have been doing since 1986!I got divorced in 1994 and I met my second sons mom that same year.We have a son that just turned 2 on may 28th! So I have a 15 year old and a 2 year old.I still live in richmond with my current girlfriend and my 2 year old.I am now 37 and I`m still the same to those that knew me in willingboro.I have been a deputy for 9 years and I love my job.I try to be a good dad to my son's and that's about it.My mom still lives in pennypacker and I come there very often.I look forward to hearing from some of my old classmates.
