Grants

I worked for Southern Calif. Gas co. for about 25 years. I retired about 10 years ago and went into real estate. I am with Century 21, Jordan Link in Visalia.

Our oldest son, Michael, was born in 1957. Our daughter, Lori, was born in 1960 and our youngest son, Wally, was born in 1962. We have lived in the same house in Visalia for 32 years. I guess we really do not like change.

Michael lives in Folsom, he is in Special Education. Last week he was voted one of the top 50 teachers in the Sacramento School District. Lori lives in Kingsburg, they are farmers and she is a 5th and 6th grade counselor. Wally lives in Clovis and he is in Marketing.

We have 7 wonderful grandchildren. Three boys, a 21 year old, a senior at Fresno State. Two 18 year olds, one at Menlo College in Atherton and one in American River College in Sacramento. Four girls, a Jr. at Kingsburg High and a 7th grader at Folsom Jr High. A 5th grader and 3rd grader at Riverbank in Clovis.

They are involved in football, baseball, golf, basketball and cheerleading. They are a big part of our lives and they keep us very busy.

Sid still goes to Corcoran at least once a seek. His parents still live there, they are 98 and 96 years old and still living in the same house he grew up in. They are in good health, they play dominos everyday.

Things never seem to slow down, I guess that is a good thing. We are busy with our families, Sid plays lots of golf and we take lots of trips. We are blessed.

If you are in our area, give us a call, we would love to see you.

We are looking forward to seeing all of you in 2004. Still remembering the great time in Reno.
