    Hello to all the Truckers here at the forum. I am Frank Steele, SOT: Son of Trucker by the name of John, 1931-1988 who operated in the Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia region, the last company being Weir Cove Moving and Storage. As for me, I had a 6 year hitch in the Navy getting to a second class petty officer as a Radioman (E5). After that I spent some time as a Janitor for Showcase Cinemas near my hometown of Imperial, Pennsylvania. I took a Computer Programming course in Pittsburgh, PA and managed to get a perfect score in the school, yet was unable to break into the programming industry. A big break I got was a part time position at Ryerson Steel using their computer assets to input their test reports. I was their most productive person at this job, and was hired full time which finally became a night shift shipping clerk and lasted for 12 years. After that position, I finally settled on a Security Guard position for a bit more than 5 years. At the end of that job I became really sick and found out that my kidneys were and finally failed altogether. Now a days, I get kidney dialysis 3 times a week and I don't feel normal usually noon(ish) the next day after dialysis. I had a Sister, Shirley, 1957-1986 and my Mother, Norma, 1933-2000. My Older Brother, John, is still alive and married Carol, and I now live with them, although this year I may be moving to Las Vegas, Nevada.

    The moderator has told me that I cannot speak on this forum about what I want to do in Las vegas, NV, therefore I cannot answer your question. However, Yes, I seem to need some assistance in obtaining housing in the Los Vegas area. Can you help me in this? I am a veteran and I tried veteran's village in vegas, but they do not seem to want to answer my question about how much their apartments cost veterans.

    I'll send a private message to you about finding housing to rent.
    You can't answer by private message because you don't have enough posts yet.
