In recent light of some concerns expressed,
there are some of us who feel that they might have
slipped through the cracks, were neglected,
disregarded, or ignored, in their short time at
Ramey High, and are a bit hesitant to now come
forward.
Let this be a place where we can all be who we are.
For those of us who fall into the above mentioned
situations, you are still one of us.
We breathed the same air. If there was ever a time
to let it all out or put it behind us, the time has come.
There are those who we will never see again, for
whatever reason; be it death, destiny or choice.
But if there is even a flicker of hope in what we are
all about and trying to accomplish, well then let it be now.
The general consensus is that the teen age years
with all those imploding hormones, can be the most
formative, rebellious, and now retrospective of our
lives. We can change our minds and way of thinking
about ourselves and our past. For if we come to terms
with our past we come to terms with ourselves, and who
we are now.
Let this be a site where we can reach out and maybe
reconnect with those who we wanted to say something
to all those years ago but never did. Time is short, a lot
shorter than we think.
Many of us will reach that space in time when and where we wished we woulda/shoulda/coulda/ done things differently. If your time at Ramey High falls into this pool of thought, well reach out touch someone, you might be surprised that they were waiting for someone from the past to reach out too. Tomorrow may never come my friends.

I left Ramey 5 days after graduating,I couldn't wait to get back to the states.I hated Puerto Rico at the time and wanted to have a military career so I got back to New Mexico at my first opportunity.My idea was to goof off for a month before I enlisted.I did enlist and was about to be inducted when I told the soldiers there that I had asthma.They told me to go home and they would get in touch with me later.In a few days I got a phone call from the recruiter telling me that the Army would not accept me under any circumstances. I was broken hearted at the time but in hindsight it was probably for the best since Viet Nam was just starting to get really hot.After that I went from one dead end job to another.In 1969 I was thinking of moving to Australia when a friend called me from Oregon and told me that he had a job waiting for me if I would move there.I figured Why Not,I was getting no where in New Mexico.I stayed in Oregon until 1983 when the company I worked for transferred me to Winnemucca,Nevada.I have been here every since and I could not be any happier.I have managed a small casino in this area for 17 years now and have no intention of retiring.I know it would have been better to further my education after High School but my heart was not in it.I have been married since 1984 but I have no children.We have a winter home in Yuma,Arizona which we visit from time to time in the winter months.My wife is retired so she goes there often.All of our vehicles and Real Estate is paid for.Life is good.My 4 siblings remained in Puerto Rico and eventually graduated.My sister Zo Ann Balcerzak still lives there. She has just started a Storage Unit business in the Gate 5 area.My Brother Mark Stanley works for The Armed Forces Exchange Service and lives in the Dallas,Texas area.My sister Mara Kerr is a RN and lives in Bend,Oregon.My sister Vicki Quinn sells furniture in Gilbert,Arizona.My parents started a business in 1963 near Gate 5.Eventually it would be known as The La Cima Hotel.All of my siblings contributed to the growth of this business. I had nothing to do with it except for staying out of everyones way
I have been retired since August,2010.My wife died of Cancer on March 12,2011.After the Funeral my siblings convinced me to go to the Ramey re-union the last part of March.I'm glad I did.Being around my classmates and siblings really cheered me up.I am still going to spend my summers in Las Vegas,Nevada and winters in Yuma,Arizona.I do hope we have another re-union in the next couple of years.
I have sold my house in Winnemucca, Nevada and bought a place in Las Vegas. I re-married on October 15th, 2011. Our plans are to buy a cabin in the mountains of southern Utah and spend our summers there. The winters will be spent in Las Vegas and Yuma. I am hoping to attend the planned all class re-union in Destin, Florida in 2013. I am hoping to see many of you there.
