What's New?

I have been retired from MVHS since 2002. I was
diagonsed with colon cancer May, 2008. My daughter set
up a web page for me at Caringbridge.com/visit/hugh
riddell. I am giving it the "good fight" with Chemo
treatments. My wife, Janet, is a saint and is my
mainstay in this battle.
I had a wonderful career at Mountain View High School,
and I am now doing volunteer work as my health allows.
I began my profesional career in 1965 after graduating
from Whittier College in '62, then my MS from UCLA
in '64. I retired in 2002 after 37 years at a
fantastic school with wonderful staff and students; a
great life so far!
I am living in Cupertino, California with my wonderful
wife Janet. We have two great daughters. Life is good
and I thank God for each day He gives me. Remember,
that life is a short journey, so make each day count.
