When someone asked me how things were and I complained about the garbage bag I forgot to take out from our kitchen on the afternoon of the evac and how bad it might smell when I got back and I looked across the room and saw one of my colleagues, head down, working hard to restore service at Tuccaro Group, I had a moment of realization. He had lost his home, all of his belongings, didn’t know where he would be living 4 months from now. Then I told myself to smarten up and carried on working hard to support Tuccaro Group. It’s people like that that I am proud to work along side and will do everything I can to support.
