Bill's Story
Life
After Burroughs, I attended Valley College. While working there, I was hired as a student worker for campus police. When I finished my AA, I was hired as a "Police Aide" (security guard) and did this while obtaining my B.S. at CSULA. I was then promoted to Police Officer and attended the LA Sheriff's Academy in 1976.
I met my wife, Mary, while working at Valley. We have 4 children, Melissa (1987) Johnathon (1988) Bethany (1995) and Matthew (1998).
In 1998 I promoted and transferred to Mission College in Sylmar, serving as Sergeant, Lieutenant and Captain. In 2001, the Community College contracted with the...Expand for more
L.A. County Sheriff for law enforcement services and we were all merged into the Sheriff's Department.
I worked as a Sergeant assigned to Custody Division and enjoyed my job, but was able to retire in March 2009.
We lived in the same house in Burbank for 25 years but post-retirement, we have recently moved halfway across the country, settling in Dubuque, Iowa. I'm getting to know the Midwest. You can find me on Facebook as bill.stevens1.
UPDATE: Have spent the last 10+ years working security at the University of Dubuque so that my youngest two got free tuition. As of November 2020, I am done and just retired,
