FROM RUSSELL MARTIN & DEBORA SALIEGO...

Hello, everyone!

Russell (Secody) Martin and I are looking forward to getting reacquainted with everyone next August. Russell and I have been married for 11 years and have been together 19 years. We moved back to Page a few years ago after living in the Mesa-Chandler area for 16 years. We both received our Engineering Degrees from ASU and worked in the semiconductor industry as engineers for nearly 10 years. When our son, Hunter, was born a few years ago, we decided to move back so that our son would have an opportunity to better understand and appreciate our Dine' culture and tradition. Moving back to Page was an adjustment for all of us. We got used to the convenience a big city provides and we're slowly getting re-adjusted to the small-town life. Russell has been working for NGS for over a year now and truly enjoys his new job. He says it's not as demanding as being a full-time dad. Before that, he was a stay-at-home dad for 2 years while I worked for ARAMARK as an Environmental Director. Now, it's my turn to stay home with our son. I'm enjoying my new professional title as "Hunter's Mom." We're definitely looking forward to the '06 reunion and we hope to see a lot more of our Dine' classmates this time around. The last reunion was a lot of fun! See you next August!!
