MARX Seaside Signal Members of “Team Depot” converged on this home on North Wahanna Road in Seaside this week for a labor of love. They responded to a request for assistance from a local vet- erans’ group to come to the aid of a Vietnam veteran in need. On Monday morning, Team Depot co-captains Jer- emy Gleason and Sandie Laccinola were joined by Mitch Thielen, Daniel Fox-Telford, Anthony Bel- tran, Mindy Mead and Tony Poelstra in replacing a deck in need of repair, provid- ing materials and labor at no cost. “The deck was in disar- ray,” Gleason said. “Part of it was sunken in and falling apart. They had caution tape around it. He couldn’t cross the front to walk around to his utility room.” This is co-captain Sandie Laccinole’s third major proj- ect with Team Depot, which reaches out to local com- munities and helps those in need. “We’re always look- ing for projects and the more we can do to help the com- munity, the better,” she said. “‘Anytime we can get out as a team and do something for a community, it’s just awesome,” Gleason added.
