Lee Hite:  

Life So, let's begin.. :) I tried to go straight to college.....that lasted less that 1 semester. I was just too, too curious and anxious to get out into the world. SO I DID! I bounced around Southern and Central CA. for 6 years. I even wnet to Seattle for awhile but that didn't work the first time. I worked for TRW, various Imported Car Parts Wholesalers, Summer Camps and Rec Centers as a Lifeguard. It was fun.....however ;) In the summer of 1984 I moved to Seattle to go to school (Finally). Some of you may remember that in Jr. year I had decided that I wanted to be Minister. Well it happened, 5 years of school, and a marriage later I graduated from ministerial school. We moved to Sun Valley, ID to take over a small ministry. What a great place to live. If you like to ski and ou have not been there yet, it is worth every penny. My son Joshua was born there in Sept. of '90. In Jan. of 91 we moved to Peoria, AZ near PHX to serve a ministry there. It was a great 3 1/2 years but an opportunity arose to move to a much larger church and move back to So Cal. So in fall of 94 we moved to Seal Beach. Everything went pretty well for awhile. Got involved in the community,and the church started growing. Along with all this I was recruited to involvement on the Int'l Board of Trustees for the Church. I was the Chairman of Youth and Family Ministries already, so it was a natural. My responsibilities expanded and along with them o did the pressure and in '98 I left the ministry. A divorce ensued in the next year. Needless to say it was a very challenging time. I went to work for a small Fireplace company and was able to help the owner grow it from a asmall home based operation to large retail operation and Consruction Company. I returned to the ministry part time in a Church in Burban...Expand for more
