When I left Campbell High, I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in which I was an aviation mechanic.  Upon the completion of my four year enlistment, I entered San Diego State University and majored in English.  Upon completion of that degree, I taught 6th, 7th and 8th grade social studies.  Then, the acting bug bit me and for the last 35 years I have performed half way around the world, primarily singing in musicals.  I will be performing in New Philadelphia, OH this summer doing the lead role in TRUMPET IN THE LAND, for anyone that happens to be in the area in NE Ohio.  My career took me from San Diego, CA to New York, NY.  From there I performed all over the United States and throughout Europe.  I am married and have a son,who lives in Utah with his wife and seven children.  My passions are singing professionally and playing golf...non-professionally.

After living in San Francisco, we lived in Marin County, hosted 32 foreign students in our home who were learning English. Loved that! Proceeded to get a Masters in Educ. Administration, then one in Career Development, taking me to a career in the career field and to teaching at Notre Dame in Belmont, then to working as a counselor at College of Marin. From there I moved to the San Francisco Theological Seminary where I worked for 8 years. Now, I am living in Oregon, having moved here in 2004. I brought my sweet mother up here and she passed away in 2006. I am trying to decide what to do next in my life. Is anyone else trying to figure that out?

After graduation day in June of 1961, I didn't take much time hanging around Campbell. Monday morning I was off to "Boot Camp" in San Diego followed by Submarine School in New London, Conn. By November 61' I was cruising the North Atlantic off Russia, 500 feet underwater, on the SSBN Patrick Henry, one of the first nuclear powered Polaris subs. Today its hard for me to see this 18-year-old kid at the helm of a mammoth war machine, but my initial life into manhood was good and adventurous to say the least! - I found out that the only thing wrong with submarines was I was seeing the world through a periscope!!, but no complaints as I loved my tour of duty in the Navy. Being a water rat since high school (I was taught well by Coach Leonard Scroggins) I went to Navy Dive School and became the ships diver. Navy life became better when I was transferred to a WWII submarine, the USS Tigrone - SS419, where I spent the last 6 months in the Navy cruising the Mediterranean !

John writes, "I left Campbell in Oct 1960. actually graduated from University High School at Southern Illinois University. I escaped Illinois and made it back to Campbell for the Class of '61 graduation where I sat high in the bleaches and cheered you all on (with a little help from a cool jug of screwdrivers). Then Dave Leefeldt and I joined the Navy, I served twenty, Dave, not so much. While in the Navy I made nine Deterrent Patrols on FBM Submarines. Twenty years in weapons system electronics pretty well limits a guys opportunities after retirement so I remained in the electronics field after Navy retirement. Now I'm really retired and kickin' back, I spend most of my time playing internet poker. I would dearly love to make the 5oth reunion, but I doubt that will be possible...........J.R"

Here is a quick look at my life since Campbell High. After attending Westmont College in Santa Barbara and graduating from San Jose State, I taught school in the Oak Grove School District in San Jose for 30+ years. I lived in Saratoga for 5 years, then moved to Los Gatos, then Monte Sereno where I live now, just five miles from Campbell High.

In 1999 during the dot com 'bubble' I became fascinated by learning HTML that produces websites that can be seen by the world, so I decided to opt out of teaching to become a web designer. I attended West Valley Community College where I obtained a degree in digital media. I established a small company, Nicerpage Web Design. This Campbell 61 website was one of my early projects.

I have one daughter who lives nearby; her husband is a world musician. My husband is a corrosion engineer who grew up in New York and attended school in Pittsburgh: CMU, for which he recruits students. He also plays timpani in the Saratoga Symphony and he is president ("for life") of our bicycle racing club.
