Gary's Story
Quick summary: Went to Collier TWP schools, through 8th grad, Harding for 9th, Carnegie HS for 10th, then what was the "new" Chartiers Valley HS and graduated in 1962.
Went to IUP for a year after HS then ran out of money. Joined the army and went to Vietnam then Germany.
Got a job with CIA and had five more overseas tours (over 15 years total foreign service), then retired after 32 years of federal service.
I took a day off then worked for Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), and retired from that company 9 years later. After CSC I worked for Northrop-Grumman Corp for another four years and retired for the third and final time on Jul...Expand for more
y 31, 09. This really will be the final retirement, honest!
My wife, Joan, and I built our retirement home Near Providence Forge, VA, about 25 miles east of Richmond and moved in to the new house in Nov 2009.
We have two sons (one of whom passed away suddenly in Feb 09), three grandaughters (including a set of twins) and one grandson.
In spite of all the travel for official purposes, my wife and I still enjoy seeing other places. At this point I have been to 69 different countries and am aiming for 100. Joan country list is considerably smaller but it is growing.
We like cruising and maybe will catch a classmate or two on our next one.
