Homes for our Troops - Key Ceremony for Navy PO1 Ryan Sykes |
![]() |
Visiting Grass Valley California, you got the impression of a small town with a rich history. Although we spent two short days there, we got a glimpse at the community. A community that came together to welcome Navy PO1 Ryan Sykes at the key ceremony. To start out the day, we toured Ryan's fully adapted home. An experience that made everyone in the room think back to a time in their life when they either took care of a loved one in a wheelchair, or spent some time in one themselves. You realize just how confining and unlivable a house can be when you don't have the same capabilities as most individuals. Seeing a young man lose his independent daily living due to a serious injury that occurred while serving for our country moved everyone in the room to want to help. This led to the realization that sometimes the best help you can give is by allowing someone to be independent. - Mikayla Pope, NW Sales Manager |
