Ron's Story

Life I married at 21 had 2 great kids and was divorced by 29. My ambulance schedule provided me lots of time to be with my children who were and are the light of my life. Rural ambulance work was tremendously exciting and scarry at the sametime. I was able to meet wonderful people and there is no reward like helping someone in there darkest day. While working for Grande Prairie Ambulance I was able to fullfill my dreams of flying by doing many medivacs and finally earning my private pilots license. Unfortunately it is a very expensive sport that I soon could not afford but at leat I acheived a dream. One of the biggest hightlights of my life was to have the opportunity to join three mission trips to Guatemala, twice for medical missions and once for a building project on the ministries school. These trips changed my life and I have a special place in my heart for Guatemala and Latin America. I must do a lot more work on my Spanish.

y work life has been quite varied since I left High School. Forestry didn't work out for me so I joined AGT for 5 years collecting money from payphones then on to Cable Splicing. I first aid course led me into the ambulance field where I became a paramedic and worked rural ambulance for 16 years. At the ripe old age of 40 I began thae hunt for a new career. I tried Home Care, worked as an office manager in a non-profit Counselling centre for 3 years. Worked at home with my now ex-wife in her business, then did what every teenager wants and flipped burgers at McDonalds, Now I put away groceries at Sobeys ( I tried Safeway first but didn't like it) Hopefully This will last until I can retire, I am getting tired of moving around. We'll. So much for that. Moved back to Calgary 2011 started driving truck. Now at the airport driving fuel trucks and working with business aircraft. Aug 2015 married my El Salvador sweetie. Enjoy being a grandad to my granddaughter and her grandson. Hoping to retire before I am 90
