Life
Hey fellow classmates! Westmont too, I went to elementary, jr. high, & my freshman year, with many childhood friends that are Westmont grads, my backyard was the cutoff.

Lisa, Lacey and Lainey are now Alumni of Mitty, class of 2005, 2006, and 2008. Lisa and Lacey, attended Fresno State where they played volleyball, and both graduated in 2010. Lisa was on Deans list every year. Lacey was Freshman of the year in the WAC conference and Deans List her Senior year. Lainey graduated from UCLA 2012, played volleyball and they won 2011 NCAA National Championship in San Antonio, TX. Lisa lives in Petaluma, CA with her husband, Christian Vasquez, and the assist director of Marin Junior volleyball club. Lacey works at Mitty supervising, subbing, and coaching volleyball. She also was an assistant coach to the women's volleyball program at Mitty until the 2022 season. She is now in charge of the boys volleyball at Mitty.

Lainey had her second child, a girl named Cooper, on July 13, 2023. Lacey and Lainey were interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic, and their formal weddings were push to 2021. Steve went to Dover elementary, Blackford junior high and graduated from Mitty in 1968 (when it was all boys), as the first graduating class! Then attended West Valley for two years before heading to Chico State, playing basketball at both schools. At Mitty his class was the first students to attend Mitty as Freshman, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. He still holds the record for scoring 50 points in a basketball game against St. Francis, before the 3 point shot was around. He worked in the family business and closed its doors about 2009. Now retired and playing golf whenever possible. For me, I went to Sunol Elementary for part of Kindergarten, then moved and attended San Tomas Elementary, Campbell Grammar, Campbell High, and West Valley! How is everyone? I haven't travel far from home, lived in Hawaii for awhile, but like Dorothy "there's no place like home". I currently live in the Willow Glen area of San Jose. Worked at Los Gatos Community Hospital, then PacBell. Started a family, and then the CFO and Transportation Director for 3 lovely lady's. Worked for 4 years part time at the St. Christopher's school library, then a little over a year for Fusion Technical Sales. The Girls have kept us busy. Still watching volleyball, but now rooting for the coaches! We now have a black lab, Murray, he's keeping me busy! The Girls thought he would be a great Christmas present in 2015! He loves to chase the ...Expand for more

School
My first school was actually Sunol, but we moved during kindergarten. Went to San Tomas Elementary thru 6th grade. My favorite teachers were Mrs. Peeks, fifth grade and Mrs. Raymond, third grade. Our principal was the best, Mr. Fischer. Next, was Campbell Grammar, the awkard years. Mrs. Dimeff was my 7th grade teacher and the best! Mrs. Hoyt and Mr. Peckman were the P.E. teachers that I enjoyed. Mr. Bryan for Math in the main hall, and Miss Easton for English. Had Miss Wilkinson for home room in 8th grade and PE. Then off to Campbell High where I loved the sports and majored in business. I played school sports and was one of the mascots in my senior year. Went out with Rick Spano for my first date, this was back in the day when I couldn't date till I was 16. Being an October baby meant junior year. Went to a Rolling Stones concert at the San Jose Civic with John Koester. Then it was West Valley College, and freedom. Was a cheerleader while I was there. Majored in Physical Education and worked in Publications for the work study program. Also, worked in the Library. The good ole days! For those from Westmont High who are wondering why I'm logged in, I was in the Freshman class that was divided when Westmont opened, plus my backyard was the boundary between Campbell and Westmont. Went to elementary and jr. high with alot of Westmont kids.
Workplace
I worked at Los Gatos Community for 7 1/2 years in radiology and nuclear medicine. Then to Pacific Bell for 10 years. Started in Palo Alto, then to San Jose where I was promoted to Management. Had the offices in Palo Alto, San Jose, Fresno, and Stockton. Our office was moved to Shoreline in Mt. View, then I was transferred to San Mateo. Then with divestiture I took over the Santa Clara 4E MAC. Left there to have my children, then took a part time job at their school. Prior to the full time work I had jobs at Wards, Macy's (Christmas help), West Valley College Publications & library, Ring's Escrow & Title in Hawaii, and then back to the hospital. Worked at St. Christopher's school library part time for 4 years. Then I worked as an Inside sales person for an electronic sales rep company. Now I'm back at home enjoying my girls! Traveling to watch volleyball.
I just read over my senior yearbook...oh how we change! Most of the messages were interesting to read. With some being so sincere and others so very generic...which I totally understand. How do you describe the last four years of high school in five minutes to some people you probably only knew from taking a class with them. But, I loved reading over them just the same. It jogged many memories that I had totally forgotten about. I wonder how some are doing, and find it interesting how some people saw me, and how I saw them. The outgoing, the popular, the athlete, the smart, and the funny ones. How time changes all of that!
