The accident has impacted the family in many ways and drives much of their community service. Currently John serves on the board of The Institute of Rehabilitation and Research (TIRR) Foundation as Christopher spent time there after the accident, and they are forever committed to this organization’s success. Both Mary Beth and John have always been active in the schools and activities of their children and in the community at large.
