LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah24 Syys 2019

KERRY TYMCHUK

Today I welcome a guest into my studio who has spent his life in public service. Once upon a childhood, he was my neighbor, my classmate, and my friend. Today he is everyone's neighbor and friend. Kerry Tymchuk has worn many professional hats - first as a young public prosecutor, then on to several roles in Washington DC, and then back to Oregon where he is now the Director of the Oregon Historical Society.

He's the son of a small town merchant/mayor, and a teacher; their attendance at every community meeting and event were almost guaranteed. Kerry, and his brother Keith, grew up with that ideal of service and have now become the models their parents once were. Keith (who I may have had a little tiny crush on...) became a teacher and returned to our home town where he too has served as mayor, and together with his wife, Jennifer (also a teacher), and children, are enmeshed in the fabric of the community.

In between official roles, Kerry has co-written 8 books with individuals who have had big impacts on our world, became a 4 time Jeopardy! champion, and served on numerous boards and causes, his favorite being the Special Olympics. He is a husband to another mover and shaker, Becky, who is the president of their local school board, and a father to two young adults just now making their way in the world.

His message to us? Find your place to serve, you always get more than you give! And please remember, "civility and decency still matter." Thank you for joining us today, I hope you feel inspired! ~ Delilah
