Meet our hometown hero

David is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and a carpenter by trade. He works at the local VA hospital, volunteers with fellow veterans, and fills his spare time with home projects, which is how he earned the nickname "Papa Fixit."

He's a fixture in Tecumseh: at his grandkids' school Veterans Day program sharing his service, and in the stands at their games.
