Walter "ACE" Presson

A little about me...I left LI in January 1970 and went south.

Worked in construction for a while and then found myself in

the Environmental field. Went back to school and got my

degree in Environmental Engineering Technology. I have

worked in the water/wastewater treatment field for 37 years

now. I work full time for a local college (Central Carolina

Technical College) teaching operator certification

continuing education and a variety of credit courses. I also

oversee three treatment plants in Columbia SC.

My wife Brenda (who was from Rocky Point) passed away

(Feb. 08) after a two year struggle with colon cancer.

We were married for 38 wonderful years and have three

children (one boy and 2 girls). I now have two grandchildren

(boy and girl). My grandson is presentlyserving in the Army.

I married a wonderful woman this past Sept. (I never thought it

would happen again). Never say Never. I consider myself a very

lucky man to have fallen in lovetwice in a lifetime. Some people

never experience it once. Cindy (my wife) is originally from New

Jersey. She has been down here for about 20 years. College

brought Cindy south where she attended and graduated from

LSU.

I would like very much to attend the next gathering of the

Commodores.
