This weekend, in the heart of Downtown Reno, we gathered in a splendid venue to commemorate the life of Ambassador David Papeleo.
David was not only a dedicated Downtown Reno Partnership Ambassador but also a valued Social Service Outreach Specialist, playing a significant role in the ambassador program.
Having once experienced homelessness on the streets of Reno himself, he made it his mission to become an outstanding outreach specialist, extending a helping hand to anyone he crossed paths with. His efforts transformed numerous lives and left an indelible mark on those fortunate enough to have been in his presence. David will be deeply missed.

He was homeless on the Reno streets. Now, he patrols them to help others in need. (rgj.com)
