Larry's Story
Life
I left Georgia in 1960 after spending a couple of years at the U of G extension in Carrolton and went to San Antonio, Texas. Worked at Kelly AFB and went to school at an extension of U of T. Traveled the country in 62 and 63. Stopped in Los Angeles and applied for employment in Hughs Aircraft which let the draft board find me. Was in the Army in 63 to late in 65. Stationed in Fairbanks, Alaska and Da Nang, Vietnam. Got a some more college credits from the U of Alaska. Got home to California in September of 1965 and went to work at North American Aviation in October of 1965. Went to a computing trade school and got into the computing department soon after joining NAA. The company was purchased by Rockwell Int. in the early 70's. In 1971, got into the very beginnings of "telecommunications" for computing. Became project engineer for the building of a private company network that was competed in 1980. Continued to go to college and got a degree from UCLA in 1982. Became the companies consultant to NASA on the building of an inter-agency network.

h no children. Son is the IT manager for the county of Santa Barbara in California. He has a daughter and is divorced from her mother. My son has three degrees from the University of California at Santa Barbara. He only quit college when I told him I was retiring and he was on his own for the cost of additional education.
I retired in 1996 and went fishing. I have been fishing Marlin tournaments in different parts of the world since and have investments in fishing lodges in British Columbia and Mexico. I sold a small place in Olympia WA and purchased a home in Barra de Navidad and my home of 30 years is in Cypress California.
I recently purchased a Condo in Barra de Navidad Mexico, and I am selling the place in Cabo San Lucas. Barra is on the mainland of Mexico between Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta. It is a small ocean side village with no stop lights. It is like Cabo was in the late 70's. Cabo is now like a border town and all that is bad about that kind of environment.
My brother Dean passed away 1998, my mom in 2000 and my dad in 2005. My brother Phil lives about 7 miles from me in LaPalma CA.
I currently live in what is called the mobile world. Without email and cell phones my life style would be very difficult and different for sure.
