' Longtime resident retires from Park City High School by Madison Furrh OF THE RECORD STAFF Irene Berriochoa, a custodian at Park City High School, is retiring from the district dis-trict after 11 years of service. Berriochoa will be leaving her job but she will be taking more than a decade of experiences and memories with her. "The friendships I have made have meant a lot to me. Friendships, you know, enrich your life. And they have enriched mine," she said. Berriochoa has a long history in Park City. She came here to visit her grandfather in 1948 and she never left. "The people are wonderful. Most of the people I knew years ago have moved." She added, "The hills are wonderful: they're so lush and green." Her grandfather, Joe Dowd, was a miner who lived to the age of 102. "He was a little Student to Student Irish man. He wasn't as tall as I am... and he always enjoyed himself." That same year Berriochoa met her husband Vic. He is already retired and they plan on travelling together. Berriochoa said, "You know your plans change but I want to go and see my daughters. One lives in Connecticut and one in Kentucky. But then we'll try and regroup and see what we should do next." She hopes to travel abroad however her husband doesn't like to fly. But Berriochoa does not plan on letting that stop her. "My sister and I would like to go to Israel to see the religious aspect of it." Berriochoa raised four children in Park City. She also has seven grandchildren. Before taking the job at the high school she stayed busy as a housewife. She said, "I stayed home and took care of them until they were grown and then I came down here." All four of her children graduated grad-uated from Park City High School. Park City High School has provided Berriochoa with more than a job. And over the years she has seen a side of the school that few others could. "Along with the work I've had an awful lot of fun. We have a great principal and vice-principal. The faculty and staff are all great. I don't believe people really realize how lucky they are to have the class of teachers that they have and the dedication that they give the students." One part of the job Berriochoa will not miss "are the messes," she added with an infectious laugh. Her last day on the job will be August 8. She took a moment to reflect on that day and said, "In a way I'll be happy and yet, you know, still I'll miss Park City High and the people there." - ...,...- " MADISON FURRHPARK RECORD Irene Berriochoa will retire from Park City High School after 11 years of service. ser-vice. Her last day will be August 8. Blazzard enjoys horsing around by Kelsey White PARK RECORD STUDENT INTERN She doesn't work according accord-ing to a posted schedule. She doesn't work weekend nights or weekdays nine to five. She doesn't have to deal with ringing telephones, complaining com-plaining customers, defective products or computer mishaps. She works outdoors six day a week from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., or until the work's done. She gets dirty, injured, sunburned and hungry, but it is obvious by her statement, "There are beautiful three-foot-high daisies in the field, but I keep forgetting to take my camera up there," that Marie Blazzard, like so few others, loves her job. Marie, now 17, has grown up the second to youngest of 11 children. Her parents, James and Kelly Blazzard, own and operate Blazzard Lumber Co. in Kamas and run a farm on the side. She has been around horses her entire life, and loves to train and ride them. This interest in horses led her to the summer sum-mer job she began four years ago. Tom and Karen Simpson run S Bar S ranch in Marion and have always been friends with Marie's family. Marie was aware of the livestock business they ran and when she was 13, she simply asked them if they needed any help. The job has been hers since. If you were to visit Marie at work, she might be breaking break-ing in two-year-old horses so they are calm enough to ride, breeding mares, training horses, bringing horses in from the field for people from the city who come up only to ride, or any of the miscellaneous chores that need to be done to keep the ranch running smoothly. "Everyone's good friends and we all just do our share," said Marie. Marie's hectic routine doesn't overshadow her bubbly, bub-bly, teertage personality. As we walked to the barn shortly short-ly before 8 a.m. she was smiling smil-ing as she played with her new puppy. We talked about summer, the up-coming school year, mutual friends typical girl talk. In all the bustle, Marie hasn't lost sight of her future. She wants to become a veterinarian vet-erinarian and says this job gives her great experience. Every two weeks she gets her paycheck, which she puts in the bank for college. When asked what she does when she's not working, Marie giggled and said "I'm always working!" But it hardly hard-ly seems like a job to Marie who is doing what she loves to do and is, coincidentally, getting paid.
