VALLEJO_LEATHERHEADS

NOT MANY PEOPLE THAT RETIRE FROM THE FIRE SERVICE HAVE AN EFFECT BEYOND THEIR OWN ORGANIZATION. MY BIG BROTHER, MENTOR, THERAPIST, LIFE COACH, MARRIAGE COUNSELOR, AND FIRE BEHAVIOR (NIST/ UL) EXPERT HAS RETIRED AFTER AN ILLUSTRIOUS CARRER.

STARTED OFF AS A VALLEJO FIRE EXPLORER AND THEN HIRED BY OFD IN 98. AN INSPIRATION FOR MANY VALLEJO FILIPINO AMERICANS LOOKING FOR A CAREER IN THE FIRE SERVICE. HAS ALWAYS GIVEN SAGE AND HONEST ADVICE. MOSTLY KNOW FOR BRUTAL HONEST AND CANDOR. WOULD GIVE YOU THE SHIET OFF HIS BACK. ALWAYS MOTIVATED YOUNGER GENERATION TO GO OUR AND TRAIN AND NEVER ONCE INTIMIDATED. CONGRATS ON RETIREMENT AND AVERY HEALTHY AND FULL CAREER.
