SINCE LEAVING KHS:

Lived in Georgetown after marriage, then
moved to Nolanville, worked at Mid-Tex telephone.
Moved to Florida in 1972, where I was born,
worked at United Telephone for about 3 years,
then we moved to Largo, FL where I decided to
begin a Tree & Landscape Company so we could be
close to the Gulf of Mexico and I could pursue
my skin diving hobby. Spent many week-ends diving
and about once a year we went down to the Florida
Keys to dive during lobster season. In 1976 we
divorced and I started working as a telephone
contractor out of St. Petersburg, FL, then moved
to Sarasota, FL and started working for General
Telephone Co. Chici and I lived together until
around 1984 when we then remarried. We both love
living in Florida. I retired 3 years ago from GTE.
Our daughter is a Critical Care Nurse and has 2
children from her first marriage, and her 2nd
husband had a daughter, so we have 3 grandchildren.
Son is not married, however has lived with his
fiance for 7 years, no children. Both of our
children live close to us in the Sarasota County
District. Although retired, I keep busy with the
landscaping company.
