He stated that “I have had a great life at Gary, met many outstanding young men and women; I have been able to raise my family and have seen all the changes in the education and vocational offering that the students have been able to accomplish. I feel very hopeful for the program knowing of all the needs of young people are being taken care of every day by the Job Corps program.”
