Ross's Story
Life
Wow! Where did the time go! 20 years out of high school and I don't feel any older LOL.
I am happily married going on 11 years in Oct.
She is my perfect match. I am lucky SOB and a far better person for knowing her. We have a perfectly imperfect, non jealous, understanding relationship where the fun never stops. I can't wait to see what the next 11 years have in store for us.
I have 5 step children that are all now adults.
Steven is 28, Heather is 25, Ashley is 23, and the twins, Adrianne and Delaney are 21. I have three step grandkids if you can believe that! Jacob is 4, Elijiah is 3, and Lexi Jade is 2.
We live in an oceanfront condo in Huntington Beach, CA and we love to surf whenever we get time. (We haven't been out in a while as its shark week on the discovery channel and I'm a little freaked out. LOL)
For those people who know me, you might remember I was a pretty serious diabetic. On July 4, 2003 I recieved a kidney/Pancreas Transplant at UCSF and I have been in better than perfect health ever since. (Thank You God! :)
I came to this site out of pure curiosity. Elisa was checking out her High School and thought I shold check mine out as well. I would like to see if there would be some kind of reunion.
Now that I'm here it might be interesting to get in touch wi...Expand for more
th some old friends and possibly make some new ones.

School
High School kinda sucked for me. I don't remember having a lot of fun and I was a total dork! LOL
Workplace
After High school I worked a Lucky Stores for about 5 or 6 years, went to a local trade school and got an AS degree in electronics. That went absolutely nowhere...
I went into business with my dad and co owned R&R Truck Repair for a few years and that also went nowhere.
I worked for Salinas Valley Ford for about 4 months and realized it was a dead end job and quit immediately.
Elisa and I then Opened up ER Truck Repair and we're very successful until the Diabetes I had been battling all my life finally took It's toll. I lost my eyesight for nearly 6 months until medical science repaired my eyesight to 20/20. Soon after I went into Kidney failure and was on dialysis for a year until I received the transplant on 7-4-03.
While I was being treated for kidney failure I took a course in Hollister and became a real estate agent.
I now work for a large private company in Huntington Beach as a Realtor specializing in Residential and Commercial investments. So far this career has been the most rewarding financially but very demanding psychologically. I am also looking into other avenues in the investment field.
