I am a retired Vice President of Wesbanco Bank Inc and Housing Commissioner of Clarksburg Harrison Regional Housing Authority. When I was asked to join the Medbrook Children’s Charity Board, I considered it an opportunity and an obligation. Helping children who may have fallen through the cracks of our society fulfills both. This organization’s commitment to the children of Harrison County is a reflection of the original founders compassion and character. I am

privileged to be a part of its mission.
