About Me:

I was the Senior Class President for 1986. I currently am the office manager for a non profit national organization for underserved middle school children in Tampa Bay, Omaha, OKC, Chicago and NJ/NY. I previously worked for 20 years at Tampa Sweethearts Cigar Company in Ybor City where I was the VP of Sales & Marketing. I enjoyed working in the cigar industry very much, but I wanted change after so many years. I love to travel every chance I get and I enjoy working in the non profit sector which is a great rewarding feeling. I am single; never been married & have no children. Aside from traveling, I keep busy being involved in charity work throughout the community especially in Ybor City. I have volunteered my time with PlaySmart, Ybor City Chamber, Ybor City Museum Society, Tampa Bay Visitor's Convention Bureau, ALS, Glazer's Children Museum, Junior Achievement-Circle of Enterprising Women, Cigar Family Charitable Foundation and the Foundation Fighting Blindness. I also keep heavily involved with HHS and its alumni association as a board member and volunteer for over 17 yrs and act as their PR with social media, websites and handle sales and merchandise among many other things. I am PROUD to be a TERRIER and will always be! PS--If you're reading this and you're a graduate of c/o 86, please be sure to go to our GROUPS page and join the 86 GROUP section so you can keep updated with reunion info. On facebook go to HHS 1986 Terriers. GO BIG RED!!! -darlene :)

Darlene & Charles,

Thank you for responding. I guess I should have starting inquiring sooner. I didn't realize it would happen so early in the year. I was thinking it would be a summertime affair. This is all new to me, as I never sought any information about my class since the last reunion that I went to, I think the 30th in 1995.

I missed the 50th, maybe I can make the 60th, not sure I can hold out that long, as my health isn't that good. I will get more familiar with the hhsalumni.com website as time permits. I am now retired, and I do part time work on my own, and I do volunteer work for my community of Gulfport Fl 33707.

Best Regards,

Al Santos
