What’s been happening:

I graduated from PSU Berks in June of 1963 with an associates degree in engineering. I married my sole partner, Shirley R. Tochia, on May 18th, 1963. We have three children, Thomas, Michael, and Jennifer, whom, with their spouses, have given us 8 grandchildren. Our oldest grandson and his spouse have given us 2 great-grand daughters. I completed my Textile Machine Works apprenticeship in 1965 and worked for Birdsboro steel until acquiring a position as a methods engineer for AMP Inc. in March of 1966. Shirley, Thomas, Michael and I moved to Harrisburg, Pa. in July of 1966. Shirley and I currently live in surburban Hbg. Jennifer was born in Hbg. I have spent 41 years working as an engineer with responsibility for assembly process development for the assembly of electrical and electronic connectors. This includes concept, design, cost est., detail drawing, assembly, conditioning and documentation assembly methods. My title upon retiring from Tyco Electronics, in July of 2007, was Principal Engineer. While I was playing as an engineer, my wife, Shirley was busy raising our three children and me. She worked at K-Mart,in the Vo-tech-school cafeteria, as a clerk at an office supply co. and at Tristan's WIC as a walker. She is a survivor of breast and kidney cancer. We both continue to work for support groups.
