William's Story
Right out of high school I went into the service to avoid the draft. I join the navy for four year so I wouldn't have to go to Viet Nam but ended up there anyways. After the service I bummed around for about a year while I took a correspondent course on heavy equipment operation. After the course I had to move because I came down with asthma and the doctor recommended that I leave the L.A. area. Because I came from the East originally and my family's roots are from Maine I decided to move to Maine where I started by working on a produce farm for a couple of years and then worked on a golf course for 11 years as a greenskeeper/mechanic/Asst. Superintendent.
I got married, then I moved to New Hampshire for a co...Expand for more
uple of years working as a greenskeeper/mechanic until I came down with what the doctors thought was MS.
I had to stop working for awhile while I found another occupation to do. I went back to school to learn accounting/business management and got a part-time job in a market research company for another 4 years until I could no longer work. Then my wife left me because she couldn't put up with my disease.
I moved back to Maine and got onto Social Security Disability and a VA Pension and retired at the age of 45.
Now I am living with a girl who is also disabled and we have been together for the past 12+ year.
I would like to hear from anybody that remembers me and I'll try to get back to them
