Richard's Story
Life
I'm married, 2 kids, and moved from IL to AZ
in 1979, and from AZ to FL in 2000, I needed a change of scenery. I had a brain tumor removed (benign) in 1996, and am now retired. We live in a very nice 55+ mobile home park in Ellenton, FL now. We're involved in a different activity (golf cart parades, pot luck dinners, social club, etc) every day, and are very happy here.
School
After high school I went to community college and took night classes, ending up with an Associate Degree in Business. It was all I needed for my job, because I had worked fo...Expand for more
r the company since I was in 8th grade, summers and vacations, and knew the product line inside and out.
Workplace
I worked for a company that manufactured advertising specialties in IL from 1965 to 1985. I ended up as Vice President of Sales. When that company was sold I became a stock broker, working for several brokerage houses until I ended up with Charles Schawb & Co. I worked there until I became unable to work due to a tumor in my brain. It was benign, but removing it took away all of my short term memory. I remember high school, but not yesterday.
