Our oldest son, Stephen, graduated from Bellarmine College Preparatory in 2008, where he was a four year member of the Speech and Debate Team. He is now attending the University of Denver, where he was invited into the Honors Program and where he is working toward double-major degrees in Computer Science and Digital Media Studies. He is also planning on graduate work - focusing on earning a Masters in Business Administration (MBA).
During high school, Stephen was very involved in community service projects, including serving as a student member of the Santa Clara County Juvenile Justice Commission for more than two years.

Our younger son, Brian, is now a Junior at Bellarmine College Prep. He, too, is involved in community service. He was honored as the 2008 Teen Volunteer of the Year by the Central YMCA. As a result, he was extremely proud to be named a Future Leader and asked to lead the Pledge of Allegience at the June 2, 2008 meeting of the Los Gatos Town Council.
Brian is a diligent student and plans on attending Santa Clara University.
