Dr. Stuart Levin was a chairman’s chair and never afraid to speak up. I succeeded him in 2012 to lead @RushDOIM and to expand on his legacy. He visited often, offered his advice. He has never stopped caring for the Department, not to his last moment. I won’t ever forget him. RIP

“I know you…” Senior Resource Fair attendee, Mr. Steven White was puzzled as to why this person looked so familiar to him. Imagine his shock and dismay when he realized he was speaking to @LtGovStratton!

Today wrapped up 12 years. I’m thankful for all that have positively affected me, but a special thanks to @garyDpeksa. The first to push me to be better and the first to joke around with. A once in a lifetime coworker and friend. Get yourself a Gary, you won’t regret it. 🥹
