Years in the Canyon: 1965-1969

I was a teenager then, born in 1951. My Step father Ralph Forest was a machinist for Hydro. He past away in 1979 and my mother decided to go back to school where she graduated from Northern College in Timmins. She then worked as an R.N.A. in Toronto till she retired at the age of 66.

We now live in Windsor Ontario where I presently work for Ford of Canada since 1972 as a Quality Analyst. I am a widower blessed with 4 special children. In March 2000 after a 26 year marriage my wife Diana lost her battle with Leukemia. My oldest son Raymond is 25 years old and commutes to Detroit everyday where he works for A.M.T. a robotics and engineering company. Laura is my 20 year old daughter and she just started her second year at the University Windsor majoring in biology and neuropsychology. Richard is 17 and just started grade 13 and his goal is to be a Mechanical Engineer. Then my last one Steven is my 9 year old athlete. He loves soccer and looks forward to playing hockey again this winter.
