THANKS TO THE EFFORTS OF ART ULLRICH AND SAM MILLER I have been deluged with Happy Birthday e-mails.
Several of you asked questions in regards to my background so I'll attempt a quick Bio.
Born in Los Angeles, CA. Aug. 27th, 1921
Started working in Hollywood Picture Business while still in High School.
Got hooked on Scuba while working on TV Series Sea Hunt.
Became certified NAUI Instructor at course in May 1962 held at Jonathan Athletic Club, Santa Monica, CA. Course was directed by Al Tilman and Garry Howland. My certification number is #207, between Larry Cushman and Dewey Bergman.
Moved to Hawaii in 1965. Formed Damron Divers School and established the NAUI Hawaii Branch serving as Branch Manager. Served on NAUI Board of Director 1972-1980, Board of Advisors and as Instructor Course Director.. Received NAUI Meritorious Service, Outstanding Contribution, and Hall of Honor.
Thank you again for taking the time to remember my birthday.
We are indeed members of a wonderful organization whose slogans include "NAUI CARES" and "Safety Through Education".
