John's Story

After leaving Hoover High, I joined the Army so I could get the G.I. benefits for college and also to be able to live in Germany. I went through basic training at Fort Knox and became a tank driver in the First Armored Division in Erlangen, Germany. I toured much of Europe while there and even to East Germany to Berlin before the Wall came down. After my tour of duty was over in the Army, I returned home to San Diego where I attended San Diego City College and received my degree in Commercial Art. I moved to L.A. in 1983 where I started working as a firefighter. I worked in Malibu and at the same time attending Pepperdine University for a Business degree. I graduated from Pepperdine in 1989. I married a girl who I met in San Diego in 1983 but divorced in 1996. I then later met and fell in love with the women who is not only my best friend, but my soul mate...( I know....sappy) We have two amazing boys who keep me smiling ...Expand for more
ever day. My first son, Sean...we found out when he was 9 months old, had a brain tumor. We went through two years of surgery, chemo, radiation...We moved to Boston where they were doing experimental new treatment that saved his life. He survived but does have severe handicaps due to the treatment. He plays the piano everyday and brings us such happiness with his laughter and smiles. After our second son Connor was born in 2002 and we decided that LA wasn't the best city to raise children.. we had lived through enough earthquakes, fires, mudslides, riots not to mention the traffic, so we sold off most everything we had and moved to Lone Tree, Co. ( just south of Denver) I have long since retired from being a firefighter due to leg and back injuries and have become a stay at home dad. Our family loves to travel and have been back to Europe and South America several times. I do miss San Diego and still visit when I can. `
