Under friendly skies, Githens Center Board Members and Administration joined Sarah Kirn for the Edward William Kirn III Memorial Garden Dedication on Friday, May 19.

Githens Center Board President Chris Nasto gave a heartfelt speech. Sarah Kirn cut the ribbon and was then presented with a lovely flower bouquet.

Everyone felt the garden looked great— the dedication proceeded nicely with the beautiful weather.

Edward Kirn III was a Githens Center Board Member for 23 years. He was integral as our legal expert as we steered our way through the challenges of transitioning from an agency primarily focused on children in our Education program to one focused on adults in Our Adult and Respite programs. He is remembered as a very personable and kind man...always with a positive outlook and quick with a quip.
