I made two of the suggested edits. Changed date of graduation and removed Soberlink board affiliation. Go4thProsper (talk) 03:19, 27 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
I also added the board service to the article, updating what had previously been included. Go4thProsper (talk) 16:32, 27 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
