Yesterday, ACTC said goodbye and good luck to one of of our special friends and coworkers, Ray Williams. Ray has brought nothing but joy, kindness, smiles, laughter, and friendship during his time at ACTC. We like to call him our "Ray of Sunshine". He is such a hard worker, and we know he will be successful in his next endeavor. He is easy to love and celebrate, but hard to see go. We sure will miss his bright light and singing every day!
Special thank you to our talented instructors, Mr. Jesse Potts with Industrial Maintenance, Mr. Rodney Fagan with Ag Power, and Mr. Tim Bradley with Construction for creating a special gift for Ray. Talent and teamwork!
