Statement by Henry Pierce, Executive Director of Clean and Sober Streets
|
The following statement in regard to the passing of Michael K. Deaver was released by Henry Pierce, Executive Director of Clean and Sober Streets, a District-based long-term residential substance abuse treatment and rehabilitation program for homeless and economically disadvantaged men and women:
"Mike Deaver came to us as a volunteer at the end of the Reagan Administration, and has been our Chairman of the Board for the last 16 years. He fell in love with the program and became our guardian angel, responsible for keeping the doors open to the thousands of people we've treated to this day.
"Every Christmas Eve without fail, Mike would show up, serve dinner to the residents and their families, play the piano and lead the Christmas carol singing. He would be on hand for every graduation ceremony, and helped place many of them in their first real jobs. He saw the potential in each one of us, and gave his heart to the individual as well as the program."
