Maria's Story
My Life
I was born and raised here in San Antonio, Texas. I attended JT Brackenridge Elementary School, Cooper Junior Middle School and from there went to Fox Tech High School. You could say I was raised" in the Barrio" Alazan Courts, Westside of SA. I have no siblings, I'm the only child. I was raised by a single parent. Times were tough, and as I see it now... Life was simple. After high school, I attended San Antonio College for /dental assistants. I found a job as soon as I was out of school, and my first job was at the Medical Arts Bldg.,downtown., and have worked for a dentist ever since. I assisted for many years and then moved on to office management/coordinator ,occasionally assisting when needed. I eventually quit my job to care for my mother(I'm the only child)in 1994, and have been out of the main stream of things since then. My mother died in 2002.
I met my husband in 1973 in a parking lot off S Presa...ahahaaa... you just never know! Actually! when I saw him... I wanted to meet him so I could introduce him to my best friend! hahaa! Which I did! But, as you can see...it didn't work out for them . We married in August 1976. We have been married for 34 years. My husband went to Brack and graduated in 68. He's a Veteran and was drafted/Army. We never had children. I have remain friends with quite a few from Fox Tech! We usually see each other from time to time at parties, clubs and we visit each other and I hate to say this...but at funerals too. I recently lost a very dear friend (sister friend) Sylvia (Lopez) Diaz ...whom I met in my first year(soph) in school. She passed away in Jan 24,2007 and I will mi...Expand for more
ss her very much.
We love going to hear this live band..Joe Jama and 100 Proof...they've been our favorite local band ever since the early 80's. **Since I've written this from day one...our friend Joe "Perales" Jama...has been struggling with some health issues and hasn't been playing as much. So we tried to go and listen to other local bands around town. We like to support our local bands and musicians.
At this time we're following the San Antonio Spurs! We've been fans since they first moved here from Dallas in 1974. At that time...they were in the ABA..different league. By the way...our SPURS won another CHAMPIONSHIP-2007!! So the SA SPURS have 4!! Now! we're Driving for #5!!!
As for myself...I make jewelry, out of glass or crystals and sell them occasionally( it's just another hobby I have and have fun doing)) And sometimes do weddings but not that often . I have a neck to co-oridinate parties..get togethers..and once very involved with my high scool reunions, until this last year. For our 40th Class Reunion..there was a conflict of interest, and clash on personalities....and this current committee doesn't even communicate. So that's that!!
So anyone out there from the Class of 68? How about setting up some pictures? And how about getting in touch with one another! Or, for that matter....anyone from Fox Tech! (or Cooper and Lanier,Brack, Kennedy or Edgewood or any other schools from anywhere!!) Okay! I would like to hear from you!......GOSPURSGO! oh! yes....remember this one? "VIVA LA TECHLA!" ;]
"LIFE IS BETTER WHEN YOU SHARE IT! LET'S EXPAND THIS CIRCLE!".....
