Life
Life's Bio - This should be interesting.
After high school I continued working at Buxton's drugs. I became Mgr. of the store and stayed until the early 70's. During that time I was also an investor in Pro Sports Center which is still in business. After leaving Eureka I ended up in Santa Rosa. My first job was an Assistant Mgr. for a Finance Company and eventually as Manager for another Company. I left that business to go to work for K-Mart and became a Mgr. of the Applicance and Elect. Dept. still in the early and mid 70's. After that I went to work for an Electronics Distributor in San Francisco and continued that for a few years. It was a lot of fun traveling around California with that company. With the contacts I had made in that industry it lead me to get involved with the Levitz's from Levitz's Furn. I became an investor with Sid Levitz's and joined him in a venture that lead us to having 24 stores in California and being one of the largest Furniture and Appliance chains during the early 80's. As things change we ran our course and ended up closing the business. From there I had a consulting company...Expand for more
, computor software company, partnered with a couple of businesses and finally ended up back in Santa Rosa were I got into the Mortgage business. I have been a Mortgage Broker for almost twenty years and I have a very successful business. I now work three to four days a week. I have a good staff that allows me to take about three months a year off and only work a few days a week. I have traveled Europe and enjoyed every minute of it but now have discovered RV'ing and have a passion to travel the U.S. I currently road and mountain bike my number one passion, kayak, free dive and scuba, motorcycle trips and of course in the RV every chance I get. I own my home in Santa Rosa and just sold my vacation home in Truckee to buy a second home in Port Townsend, Wa. I think Port Townsend will be were I retire. I tried retirement and found out it is not for me. After figuring this out I think I know have the perfect life at this point in time.
This is a brief bio of what I have been doing since High School. Although brief there is of course so much more that you just can't put on paper. Hopefully see you at the reunion.
