Treasure Island). Purchased our first home in San Francisco on Lobos Street. Switched jobs and went to work for Georgia-Pacific Corporation (South San Francisco) as Maintenance Manager in 1981. Over a period of 23 years, I managed every manufacturing department and eventually became the Plant Superintendent. As a Naval Reserve Officer, I commanded 6 different units and retired in January 2002 (30 years) as a Captain after mobilizing my Naval Coastal Warfare Unit for 9-11 (Noble Eagle). The Georgia-Pacific plant closed in 2004 and Beverly and I sold our home in San Francisco and purchased a new construction home in Roseville, CA. We love it. We also have four lovely grandchildren (3 boys and 1 girl). Am presently unemployed (semi-retired)but still enjoying lfe and my grandchildren.
