Stories such as Fauchier’s demonstrate Dr. Jones’ impact on our community and his belief the Dental Health Center could make a difference for a family and turn a life around. “It’s not just about where you’re from, it’s where you’re going. If you can inspire one person to a higher level of health and wellness, I believe there’s a great deal of satisfaction that comes from that,” Chittick said. “It’s something Rhys truly believed. It was what he lived.”
