Margie and I have moved to Nampa
Idaho (A/O 10-29-2009). We have lived in Rohnert Park California (4 years), Las
Vegas (2 years), and Dumaguete City in the Philippines (5 1/2 Years),
since we met. I moved to Dumaguete City back in 1998 where I met
and married Margie.
At some future date we would
like to build a house on a lot we own near Margie's Mom's house in
Dumaguete City. The lot
feeds several goats and a Water Buffalo right now. Dumaguete City is a
rural city and made up of many districts, about two thirds of which are agricultural.
I worked as technician at Pacific Bell/SBC/AT&T until
1996 when I retired. I spent several years (off and on) working at
SPRINT PCS after leaving The Phone Company. I left SPRINT
PCS due to Prostrate Cancer and many other complications in June of 2002.
Margie is from Dumaguete City which is on the
Island of Negros. When I met Margie she was working as the manager of
the pants department (where I was introduced to her) of a department
store named Tops and Bottoms.
Negros Oriental is located in the central
Philippines, the part they call the Visayas (pronounced "Ba sigh ass"), they even speak
their own dialect here which is Visayan/Cebuano. Margie also worked as a
technician at Agilent Technologies and at the Payless Shoe Source
in Rohnert Park after Agilent Technologies moved all of their work offshore.
During our two years in Las Vegas we lived with my sister Shirley and her
husband Frank. They must be angels to have put up with us
for 2 years. Thanks be to God for their help. Shirley and Frank
have since moved to Sequim Washington.
