As this project continues in 2026, our goal remains the same: to listen closely, to honor the stories people trust us with, and to preserve them as part of Waco’s living history.

Waco Voices: On Veterans Day and beyond, he serves those who served
Bethea’s calling extends beyond his job as a veteran outreach coordinator. He does after-hours outreach to find housing and resources for struggling veterans. He offers free lunches for veterans each Thursday and prepares barbecue feasts on Memorial Day and Veterans Day that typically draw about 200 people.
