Wheelchair ramp improves his life

I would like to thank The WILL Center for the new wheelchair ramp they put onto my home.

I now am a new man because I can get out of my home so well, it is a beautiful sight to be seen and used.

I want to thank Gloria and Randy and the men that measured and built the ramp to code. May God bless all of you and your loved ones!

I would also like to thank Chase for getting me back to walking; Chelsea, my aide: and my nurse, Jami, for all their help. May God bless them. They were sent from Heaven to help me.

— William M. Marchino

  As the General Assembly began its work last November, as Speaker of the House, I pledged a renewed spirit of bipartisanship with legislators working together to solve our state’s most pressing challenges.
