STATEMENT FROM AUSTIN PETTY COO, VICTORY JUNCTION

Victory Junction’s COO, Austin Petty, makes a statement on the passing of his grandmother, Lynda Petty:

“We have lost my grandmother, but my family and our Victory Junction family are grateful to have had her love and wisdom for so many years.  It was no secret that she was the cornerstone of the Petty family; a woman of humility and extraordinary strength.  While we mourn her death, we also celebrate her life and the profound impact she had on those who knew her.  The pride she had in her children, her grandchildren and her great-grandchildren was shared with us through her unconditional love.  Her strong example of leadership outside of her home was most recently acknowledged by the Association of Fundraising Professionals when she, along with my grandfather, was honored with the Lifetime Achievement in Philanthropy Award for her personal commitment to seriously ill children and to our American troops.  We honor my grandmother’s legacy of inspiration and enduring love at Victory Junction today and always.”
