We are so pleased that this organization sponsored The Way at the silver level. David is a sincere believer that people get ahead with hard work. He stated that he started working at 8 years old on a farm and has held 2 jobs most of his life. He contributed to The Way because he believes our youth are tomorrow’s future. His wife used to teach elementary students and she believes today’s youth need to learn good moral traits.

The Way has a proud new gold level sponsor, Mike Heffington of Heffington Appraisal Company Inc. He has been in business for 30 years. He acquired Lake Area Properties Realty Group in 2004.
