CLASS OF 1970

Debey's Story

It's a short story ... I was married to a wonderful man, Ray Dick, Glendale High '69, and we lived and loved and played and worked together until his death in 2006. We had a security alarm company so for 24 years I worked in the field as an engineer / installer in all fields of low voltage system integration. I continued on by myself for a couple of years - drilling and wiring and installing alarms and sound systems, etc...it's pretty Zen pulling wires in an attic in 114 degrees...but the time came to close that chapter. A bad arm fracture helped to convince me, but the real reason was choosing to take care of my beautiful grandson, Aiden. Aiden was only four months old when Ray passed away and he quickly became my heart. I'm so blessed he was here to keep me going. Aiden - now five years old - and his father, who is my handsome and talented son, Dan Dick, live with me in the same 99 year old Craftsman bungalow that both my kids were born in.

h of her adult life living in Co. Cork, Republic of Eire (Ireland). I spend a lot of time in ministry at my church and I'm so grateful for my church family and for some wonderful friends from Burroughs Band who really helped me so much the last few years when my heart wasn't so interested in going on. One of them - Cheryl - even got me to play snare with the Burbank-Burroughs Alumni Marching Band in this year's Burbank on Parade. The Alumni Band is always looking for more members so PLEASE look it up on online and join us for some fun, if musically dubious, events. Like I said - a short story. I have to make some decisions about the rest of my life and, like many who have lost their spouses, I haven't a clue how to do that. I spent so many happy years sharing and liking and enjoying the same things and places that Ray did, that I really have no idea what things I personally like. Crazy old world. I'm finally (almost) at the point where I'm ready to find out so I'm hoping for an interesting next part of the voyage. Please, wish me luck.
