Robert's Story
I doubt most of you will remember me I was not popular and didn't want to be. Most of my small group of friends are dead now unfortunately. Most of us should remember our friend Mike Muryama, his death was hard to take he was such a fun guy to be around and could make anyone laugh. After High school I went to Allen Hancock for a couple months but school was not for me at that time. In March of 75 I enlisted in the Army to get training by the Bell system to become a PBX installer. I was married and had a daughter while in the Army but should have known better than to marry a woman that went to Cabrillo....lol. Separated before leaving the Army needing some time alone I bought a tractor trailer and drove through 46 of 48 states until the independent trucker strike in 79 when I was shot at and stabbed. It was definitely not what you see on tv got to see the worse part of every city. I sold my truck and went to work for Pacific Bell as a PBX installer a job that was challenging and fun.

ry nice and Aaron Spelling stunk of lavender cologne Tori was about waist height when I was called out to their beach house in Malibu on a Friday night. I could go on and on but the fun ended when I fell on a construction site in 83'- 15' backwards landing on the back of my head on a concrete floor. ER Dr. said I should not have survived I had 2 surgeries and have a plate and 5 screws holding my neck together and they have removed parts of 5 vertebrae to relieve pressure from my spinal cord. The concussion caused me to have seizures over 2 years later. I married a second time in 1988 and had 2 more daughters and a son. My oldest daughter still lives in Lompoc and has 4 kids, I have a daughter attending college in Indiana and a son and daughter in high school. I was forced into management in 86 because of my injuries and forced to retire in 04. My wife has put up with me for 25 years this year including racing NASCAR short track series for 5 years, the most expensive hobby on the planet. Still have a race car in my garage, try to sell a race car in todays economy...lol.
