Bill and Belinda Beck TCC # 1900, joined with a goal to become active members in 2011. Bill and Belinda were at every event they could work into their schedule. They left behind them a string of new friends. Bill told me “I’ve made greater friendships with my Cushman people than people I’ve know all my life.”
