Pastors Roger Valci and Daren Laws have become good friends since Laws moved here eight years ago to lead Brave Church in San Ramon.īrave, called Church in the Hill in those days, has enjoyed some publicity when Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr and his family worshipped there and preached on occasion. Since graduation, she has taken three mission trips and will be serving in the Philippines for nine months starting in September. Given that Cal tradition, our daughter went south to the University of Southern California and graduated with a degree in international relations.
She and I both graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, as did both of my parents and my three siblings. My wife, Betty Gail, has taught at Amador Valley High (from where we both graduated) since 1981. I also served as founding chair of Heart for Africa and have travelled to Africa seven times to serve on mission trips. I have served as a director of many non-profits in the Valley and the broader Bay Area and currently serve as chair of Teen Esteem and on the advisory board of Shepherd?s Gate. I spent 39 years in the daily newspaper business and wrote a column for more than 25 years in addition to writing editorials for more than 15 years. About this blog: I am a native of Alameda County, grew up in Pleasanton and currently live in the house I grew up in that is more than 100 years old.
