Derek's Story
Life
Dear Friends,
For those who remember me, you probably remember that when I graduated I was leaving for the Navy. If your are a Pal from the Navy you may want to skip a few paragraphs to find out where I went after the Navy. If your a friend from Davis High, Washington State, Orlando FL, or Charleston SC read on.
I am back in Layton, Utah but don't know for how long. I currently live near Hill AFB. I'm getting ready to go off on a New Adventure as a Long Haul Trucker. If you remember my Step(Dad) Jim was an excavator. Suzy and I are currently seperated, and she has custody of the kids and will be staying here in Layton. At least until Micky gets married. Daniel our oldest is married and has one son.
I'm haven't had any luck getting back into the Energy/Instrument Engineering industry since Mom took ill with bone cancer. We miss her she went to her garden in Heaven in August of 2006. Her body was left to rest at the Farmington Cemetary.
Well I served six years on Submarines and left the service as an ET2. I had qualified as a Reactor Operator on the USS Sam Rayburn SSBN 635.
When I left the service I went to work for Westinghouse House Electric Corp. at a...Expand for more
Reactor called the Fast Flux Test Facility in Southeastern Washington State. I worked for various Contractors at the Department of Energy site outside Richland, Washington.
I last worked full time for Stock Building Supply as a Quality Control Inspector at the Ogden Roof Truss production facility. I am currently freelancing as a Contractor, Home Designer and Electrician. Doing on remodeling jobs to get by.
We lived in Washington for 15 years and returned to Layton, Utah about four years ago.
My oldest son (Daniel) has graduated from Northridge High. He is an EMT in Salt Lake & has worked with Weber County Search and Rescue Team. Since membership in the SAR was voluntary he currently also works part time for Inland Sports as their Manager of Internet Sales.
My daughter graduated from Mountain High last spring(2008). She also works at Inland Sports. She and RJ had our second grandchild born to them in November of this year. She has hopes to become an Interior Designer.
My children and I share a love for the outdoors. I hope to bump into some of your in Adams Canyon, the ski resorts or at the local theaters.
My youngest son attends Adams Elementary School.
