Spotlight on: Mike Hamilton, 69 -
Mike retired to Joplin to take care of his mother, but after the
devastating tornadoes he saw the overwhelming need for his skill as an
electrician. Mike was also able to share
his love of landscaping and gardening with our clients – putting the finishing
touch on our clients’ homes.
Mike, why do you
think Service is important? It’s important because people are important, ad
if they are trying to recover then we should help.
What accomplishment
are you most proud of? Whenever I
finish a house and it is turned over to the owners…but mostly when I finish a
garden or landscape a yard and make it a home instead of a house.
You volunteered with
Catholic Charities and Habitat for Humanity and served 2 terms with
AmeriCorps. What have you gained from
serving others? A lifetime of memories and a sense of being a part of
something important.
