The past fifteen years have seen many changes in my life. Moved
to Huntington Beach to complete two more years of education
and ended up staying fifteen and earning a Ph.D.
My health was also a major issue. In 99 I fell at work due to
unsafe conditions and broke my knee in two places. 2002 I had a
stroke which had left my right side weak. With the fracture and
the stroke I had a hard time walking on uneven ground. 2003 I
went into renal failure and was on dialysis until I had a kidney
transplant on March 1, 2007. That has turned my life around and
I am back to my old self. The weakness has gone and I still have
some problems walking but I do well with that too.
In October of 2008 I moved back to Pinetop to retire
and my favorite thing FISHING. I'm back involved with
the Scouts and the police dept. here. It's like I never
left !
