Sheila McCanless Ritzow

Married in 1969, never left California. Divorced in 1989. Moved to Monterey, CA to work for First American Title Co. and raise my daughters. Retired and moved to Stockton, CA to take care of aging Father and have stayed. Remarried in 2013; great the second time around. Raising grandchildren and caregiver for aging Mother-in-Law. Life is good and always changing.

I have fond memories of school. I was never the best student nor was I the worst. I went to one elementary school (West Park); one Junior High School (Redwood) and one High School (Napa). The people you meet during those years, are the people who influence your outlook towards life. I dated one boy, who I married and later divorced. Not the smartest decision, but we all do the best we can at the time.

The friends made during this period are always your friends, if only in your own mind. We all go on our own way and live our lives to our best ability. I miss all my youthful friendships and hope all are doing great. I read the list of those who have passed and a shed a tear for those closest to my heart, God Bless them all!
