First to take the stage was Simone Spiegel, board president and event chairwoman. Spiegel introduced Ellyn Okrent, CEO of the organization, who reminded guests about the challenges in child-care services and education everyone is facing. Honoree Dr. Tina Westine shared a personal experience: ‘My mother was able to thrive and succeed as a successful businesswoman because of the support she received from the Fuller Center. The Fuller Center planted the seed of hope in me and my family that inspired us to pursue the American dream.’ ABOVE: (l-r) Tom Mersch, Dr. Patricia Anastasio and Simone and Sam Spiegel. BELOW: Drs.
