II've stayed in Tucson all the years before and since our four years together at CHS. After finishing three degrees at the Uof A, I began work with the City of Tucson in 1970, as Evaluation Administrator for the Model Cities program. After that program terminated, I worked elsewhere in City government, ending up at the Tucson Police Department in 1977. I worked there as a Senior Management Analyst for the Department until retirement in July 2005. Since then, I've done some volunteer work with neighborhoods, traveled with my wife and worked part-time for the fun of it. In 1966, I married Kenith "Kay" Wertman (class of "61") and we've cruised through the years together quite nicely. Kay taught geography and history full time for TUSD, leaving the district in 2000. Our daughter Amy now teaches elementary school in TUSD. Our grandson, Jake, is a junior in a local high school. I'm still working with community improvement groups in Tucson and traveling with Kenith whenever we can.
