🎆🪄What a night full of magic and heartfelt moments as our own Rose Davis attended the Farewell Celebration of Major General Ondra Berry and his wife Margo Berry in #LasVegas! Major General Berry has inspired our network as a speaker at WRMSDC Nevada events on three occasions, and his leadership has played a vital role in the growth of our MBEs and diverse/inclusive suppliers. Major General Berry serves as the Adjutant General Nevada National Guard--the highest ranking military person in Nevada. He is retiring on 10/31 after 38 years of service to Nevada and our Nation. 💙Major General Berry reminds us that each of us has an Ayoba spirit - "a spirit of awesomeness & greatness" waiting to shine! Major General Berry, thank you for your incredible support of the Western Regional Minority Supplier Development Council and our MBEs over the years. Here’s to your next chapter! The best is yet to come! 🎉👏🏼 #diversityandinclusion #celebrate #visionaryleadership #opportunities #servantleader
