My wife and I have always believed it important to give back  and support our community as best we can. We have found many opportunities to volunteer, whether it be my 20 years of work on the finance committee for the YWCA, my time on the board for Friends of Youth, which has since merged into Missoula Youth Homes, my wife's continued work volunteering for Meals on Wheels, or charitable donations.

Being involved in our community has allowed us the opportunity to meet new people and use our knowledge and skills in a different, meaningful way. I appreciate working with each organization throughout the past several years.
