Written by Joe Public on October 13, 2023. Posted in Articles.

Congratulations, Wayne Williams, 2023 Volunteer of the Year! Wayne has been volunteering with Fisher House for the past 7 years, helping to organize all the moving parts for our annual gala, and all the festivals we support in the community. In 2021, Wayne stepped up to be the Liaison and now skillfully leads almost 800 volunteers in 7-12 special events each year. Event inrastructure, set up, staffing, tear down – he specializes in chaos management and trying to teach me how to put up a tent! Wayne retired from the Marines, continues to work full time for Lockheed Martin at Eglin, and is making a big difference in our mission. Appreciate you Wayne!

Borrowed from our friends at Friends of Pittsburgh Fisher House – our families say it best:

“Thank you for being such a fabulous, home away from home. My husband and I came down from SC to help our son during the first week after shoulder surgery. We were grateful to be close to him while he adjusted to temporarily one-handed for awhile. It’s nice t know this place is available for those who need it. Thank You!”
