Ron Burch is Alive and Doing Well!

I am thrilled to report that Ron Burch who was named as being deceased at our 30th Reunion is actually very much alive and doing well. I asked Ron to submit a Bio on what he has been doing for the past 30-years and here is what he had to say …

This is Ron Burch and quite simply, I am still alive and kicking! I was requested to submit, “What I have been doing for the last 30-years.” After high school, I became a male Nurse who became frustrated with taking orders from Doctors so I went back to college and continued my studies as a Pre-Med Student. During this time, I also attained my 2nd Degree Black Belt and became an instructor for the World Tae Kwon Do Federation.

After changing my major several times, I finally got my Bachelor Degree in Psychology and from there went on to study Law. I currently own and operate an Immigration Consulting Business in Santa Ana, California. Surprisingly, I have had several La Serna Alumni become Clients; processing their foreign spouses to legal residents.

Outside my profession, I have maintained my relationships with Art Foulkes and Brian Withey; playing music in bands here and there, still expressing our Youth through performing. I have also studied and performed Magic.

I have been married for 17-years to “My Best Friend,” Lisa Burch, formerly known as Lisa Foulkes, Art’s sister. I have two daughters; Aubrey who is ten-years-old and Whitney who is 24 (from a previous relationship) and lives in Scotland. She is married and has blessed us with two grandchildren, Brenden & Madison.

I am sorry that I missed the 30th Reunion but most sorry that you all were informed that I had passed away. So, spread the news … Ron Burch is still alive and I am very humbled by all of your concerns.

Respectfully yours,
Ron Burch Class of 1979
