Summary
After 42 years of unwavering service, Terry Deets—the beloved “Honorary Mayor” of the Calgary Food Bank—is stepping away, leaving behind a legacy of compassion, coffee-fueled smiles, and countless lives transformed. Starting with a newspaper ad in the 1980s, Terry poured thousands of hours into feeding Calgary’s hungry, becoming a familiar, joyful presence whose spirit defined the food bank. Now, in honor of his extraordinary impact, the organization launches “Terry’s Campaign: Honouring 42 Years of Heart,” aiming to raise $15,000 to keep his mission alive. His story is a powerful reminder: one generous heart can change everything. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
