Gunter Person of the Year Congratulations to these incredible individuals who work so hard to make Gunter THE place to live and raise our families! We reached out to the community for nominations, and these folks were recognized for the following reasons – some were nominated by multiple people, so we just combined their nominations. Please take a moment to go VOTE for favorite and when you see them around town, take a moment to say THANK YOU for all that they do for Gunter. We’ll be announcing the winner in next month’s issue!
Mitzi Nelson: I had to really think about this nomination as there are so many essential people in Gunter that make a difference to the community every day. I chose Mitzi because of her dedication not only at her children center, Funovation Station, and her speech pathology practice, Tiger Speech Therapy, but also her work with the Gunter Schools. She is also very involved with the Jr FFA program in Gunter. She is one of the friendliest, humble people I have met and does what she can to help others. I have worked with her on a professional level and interacted with her on a personal level. I have always been very impressed by her professionalism, attention to kids’ development and her need to help the community.
Kyle Rigsby: He has three amazing athlete sons going or have gone to Gunter. He coached football for several years. He never misses a game and if able, he goes to all athletic events. He is a great role model and a Christian man.
Lynn Reed: He is committed to keeping the vision for a strong close-knit family community. Born and raised in Gunter and newest member of the school board, Lynn has taken this role with such enthusiasm and passion. His drive to continue to keep the small-town values while transitioning to the growth that is coming, is inspiring. He always has a smile and a kind word for all.
Jake Fieszel: His effective leadership, dedication, pride, and example has such a positive effect on so many; especially the youth of our community.
Lisa Marks: She gives 110% of herself to our community, our kids, and her family!! Somehow, some way, she’s literally involved in every aspect of our schools. From art, to PTO, to GIFT, to FFA, to sports programs!! If she knows your child, she’s there in every possible way to support your child!!
Cody Stovall: Cody has put his whole heart into the youth sports of Gunter. He has had a lot of pushback from certain groups and people, but his intentions are always to better our kids. He did a great job fixing the baseball fields and worked tirelessly to do it on his own dime. Cheers to Cody! Online voting is available at www.LifeAndLuxuryMagazine.com/Gunter until February 20th!!
