William's Story
I attended Nogales High, and in my Freshman year, was a member of Acapella Choir (Baby member as they called it), I was vice pres. of Men's Glee, I played the Cello in the Orchestra. I remember the day I sat on Teresa Vasquez lap as she gave me a baby bottle. LOL My face was as red as a beet.( Diamond Bar Country Club) I think, I sang " The impossible dream" ( My first trophy said :Baby member Acapella Choir). ;o)
My Sophomore year I became Vice pres. Acapella Choir, Pres. of Men's Glee, and Pres. of the Orchestra. That year we went to Disneyland Hotel. I think I sang Blue, Blue, My World is Blue. That year I recieved my second trophy that said: President Award Men's Glee. Mrs. Flanery was my favorite Teacher.
We all had fun.
After my Sophomore year was over, and multiple family problems, I decided to drop out of High School and enlist into the U.S. Marine Corps. (After the summer vacation. I realy didn't know what I was getting myself into so I waited till the end of summer vacation).
I entered M.C.R.D., San Diego, Ca...Expand for more
lif. Sept.1968, Served in Iwakuni, Japan for 13 months, Served in Da Nang, Viet Nam for about 5 months and then 5 more months in China Beach, Viet Nam. I spent a week in Sydney, Australia for R.& R.
After my 4 years of service I received my Honorable Discharge. Later on I got married, (no children), then divorced, about 1 year later I remarried and have 5 children. after 9 and a half years I lost her to a killer in Detroit, Michigan. Our youngest chid was only 6 months old. I now have 1 granddaughter and 3 grandsons.
I studied wilderness survival skills from an Indian in Clackamas, OR (Indian Skills) I couldn't wait to get out for a hike and munch on the wild edibles on the way. I'm into Holistic medicine now and I make Healing Herbal Salves, Tinctures, etc. etc. I love harvesting my own wild groceries and medicines. I even have some of my products in a clinic in town.
I am still a widower and would love to share my life skills with someone special. After all I am 61 years young. ;o)
