Rick's Story

After High School I worked for a few years at my stepfathers business in Bellflower. In 1980 I got a job at Modern Alloys Highway Contractors in Stanton, CA. I was in a relationship for a few years with Toni Lucas. During the 80's I was the singer in a band with Rodney Ferre, Cary Alter and Leonard Saldana. We were called Toyz. We played parties and wherever we could get a chance to perform. We broke up in 1983 as well as Toni and I. After this I was involved with a couple of bands during the 80's, White Lie and Straight Shooter. We played original rock music and performed in all the local O.C. clubs. I also did some recording for an O.C. band called Flynn. I wasn't actually in their band, but they asked me to record the vocals for their demo so they could attract a singer. You can hear the recordings on Youtube, (although I wasn't given any lead vocal credit). I'm proud of the work I did on "Say You'll Stay" and "Don't W...Expand for more
alk Away". The other two songs, ehh! I've been married twice. I got married in 1989, but it only lasted a year. I got married again to Denise in 1991 and we've been married ever since. We reside in Norwalk, CA where she grew up and we actually live in the house she was raised in. I lost my job at Modern Alloys in Jan. 2013, where I worked for over 32 yrs. They are going through financial troubles and had to scale back. I got a new job in Oct. 2013 with National Trench Safety in Anaheim, CA. where I became their Branch Manager. My wife and I have done a lot of traveling over the last 23 yrs. We've been to Hawaii many times and even went to Tahiti once. We've been to the Caribbean and also the Mediterranean. Italy's our favorite European destination. We chose not to have children, but we're a good Uncle and Aunt. We've taken all our nephew's and niece's to Hawaii with us. In fact we have one last niece to take in July 2014.
