Earlier this week, we were informed of the passing of Amarillo Housing First president Martha Baird. Martha was a tireless advocate for Amarillo's homeless population and our community as a whole. Martha was also a dedicated supporter of independent journalism in Amarillo and was a fierce advocate for every person living in this great city. Martha served Amarillo on the Amarillo Housing First Board of Directors and worked to leave Amarillo better than she found it.
We ask you to join us in remembering Martha Baird and sending our thoughts and prayers to her loved ones.
