After graduating from J.B.H.S. my mother, father and I moved to Montebello where I joined the International Union of Operating Engineers, Local #12 as a surveyor. After 5 years surveying, I started work for heavy equipment companies as a grade checker, equipment operator and then foreman/superintendent.

November, 1976, I became a business representative for the International Union of Operating Engineers, Local #12 in Los Angeles.

I retired April, 1996, at the age of 58 years young.

I moved to Hesperia, March of 1998, where I still live.
