- Moved to Compton, California with my family from the South when I was 6 years old. I still reside in Compton (The Hub City)!!
I went to Marian Anderson Elementary School for (3 years) & to John F. Kennedy Elementary School for (3 years) and graduated. I went to Willowbrook Jr. High School and graduated. Then I went to the "Big Ten" Centennial Senior High School and graduated.
After High School I graduated with a B.S. Degree in Health Science from San Diego State University. Started working slowly on my Masters Degree in Public Administration at Cal State University Dominguez Hills.
I have worked in the Health Care Industry for the last 35 years and I have worked as a Health Educator/Project Coordinator for the County of Los Angeles Health Department ( The Sexually Transmitted Disease Program) for the last 22 years, with 30 total L.A. County years. I have won numerous Awards and have been named Employee of the Year twice. I recently won a Community Service Award from Sisters, Inc./Stakeholders Group for educating the community regarding healthcare for the last 35 years.. I go into Junior and Senior High Schools and Teen Mother Programs in Compton, Ca. and the Los Angeles area as a Guest Speaker on STD's.
I started a Project in 1990 called the "Prevention Connection" in which I distribute condoms (free of charge) to various Community Based Agencies; as well as local Beauty Salons, Barber Shops and Pharmacies. This project has won many National Health Awards and has been recognized by many Pharmaceutical Companies, the News Media, Local Newspapers, and very proudly in Washington D.C. at the Presidential Media/Press Conference, it also has been honored many times at the (A.P.H.A.) American Public Health Association Conference Symposiums. The Prevention Connection Project continues to assist over 120 businesses in 17 Cities in the Los Angeles Area in distributing free condoms to their clientele (the project originated in Compton, Ca.).

Happy 68th Birthday Phoebe,
I know that you have gone through a lot over these past few months since April with the death of your brother,
your Son's half-brother who was murdered, by his close friend out in Pomona, Ca. in July,
you've had a few close friends who also recently passed away,
your Mom needing foot surgery again this week and also has pneumonia and was transferred to another hospital,
and her birthday is this Saturday, Sept. 13 and she'll be 88 years old.
Along with all that you still keep your three grandchildren everyday
and now you are the sole person to take care of your Mom's house and her finances along with your own home and finances.
I know it is a lot but I'm glad that your Son and your Cousin help you when they can.
Just know Phoebe that God is with you and that He will help you get through it all.
Phoebe you will be in our prayers. Reach out if you need help.
Come on the websites: this one and the Big Ten '75 website when you can. You have been greatly missed!
Love ya, Tam
