Statement from President & CEO Jason Jakubowski on the tragic death of Volunteer Services Manager Delores Tracey John.

Wallingford, CT

“Heartbroken and devastated don’t even begin to describe what we’re feeling today. Delores was more than just our co-worker, she was our friend. She had an energy and a charisma that would light up any room she was in, and her passion for the work that we do was undeniably infectious. It’s going to take us all a while to wrap our heads around this… but for now, our family simply prays for Delores and hers.”
