Pittsfield High School Class of 1957

080903 Dear Class of 1957 . .

I am writing to let you know that I lost the 'love of my life' on my 69th birthday. My (second) husband, John, passed away in the early morning hours of September 3, 2008. His obituary can be read at the 'IdahoStatesman.com' and there is a guest book that can be signed, if anyone cares to.

Also, my E-mail address is: lnjde@q.com.

John de Laveaga (it's a Basque name) was a wonderful man with a big heart who loved our retiree life here in Idaho. ï¿½His passion in life was golf and we met on a golf course in 1992. ï¿½He was an accomplished golf instructor and through expert instruction and gentle coaching, he took my miserable 36 handicap down to an 18. ï¿½ He also excelled at proper club fitting . . especially for ï¿½'senior' women. ï¿½He was loved by all who knew him. ï¿½

His favorite TV show was 'Law and Order' and his favorite actor was Jerry Orbach (aka 'Lennie'). ï¿½My heart goes out to all who have lost a mate . . it really hurts!
ï¿½
