His last job, held for maybe 10 years or so, was the Permanente local. I videoed his last trip for him and have a copy somewhere on tape. He had built a house in Durango for retirement and actually took it before Tommy DeLa Rosa so he never got to be number 1 on the list as Tommy did .
and yes, GO BEARS!!!! even if there are dire changes ahead for a Pac 12 or some such.
