Michael's Story
My wife Jo(Serio) and I have lived in North Torrance, for 48 years. (we actually live closer to Gardena High now than when we were in school) I have been a real estate broker for 45 years, and have been sub teaching for 27 years in grades 1 thru 5 for the Torrance School District.
As an sideline, I do oil paintings, watercolors, murals and graphic design work, some of which I sell.
Jo retired from Bell Telephone after 27 years in 1991, and in 2012 retired from the Daily Breeze after 20 years. I have a few old classic cars that I take to car shows locally and often bump into old Gardena alums.
Jo and I enjoy traveling and made our 4th trip to Italy in October 2018 staying in Venice, Lake Garda, Bologna, and Florence. during a 3 week visit.. We also spent a week in Rome I was able to visit En...Expand for more

Jo and I also enjoy trips to Las Vegas a few of times a year.
Our only daughter, Gina,, is married to Carl Marrelli, ( Owner of All American Window Cleaning) . Gina is the Executive Manager of Stage Operations for Sony Pictures. .My granddaughter Kaitlyn is 19 years old (going on 40). and attends CSUN. Once a year I get together with my brothers : Tony, Chris and Terry, ( brother Pat (W 67) passed in 2021) for a weekend at our cabin in Big Bear to reminisce about relatives and the good old days. We also a extended family gatherings with our cousins every few years.
The family gatherings are something that I really look forward to, .especially since time is going by so quickly.
