Making an Impact
You probably already know that June is Russ Wilson’s last month at Wilson Lumber. It’s been an emotional month, a good month, and a bad month for all.
Good because God is calling Russ to something new, and we don’t want to stand in the way of that. In fact, we are excited about what that might be.
But bad because Russ will leave a hole at Wilson Lumber. No one cares for people like Russ does. He has a huge heart and loves people and wants to ensure everyone is taken care of. This is his greatest strength and what we will miss the most.
Besides that, if you know him, you know he’s just a good guy. And 23 years (plus summers growing up) is a long time to spend at a workplace whether you’re one of the owners or not.
Russ, we love you and we’ll miss you. Thanks for treating others the way you want to be treated. Thanks for making an impact at Wilson Lumber.
