AS WE GROW ACCUSTOMED TO “LIVING WITH COVID”, MEMORIES OF LIVED EXPERIENCE FADE AND WE FORGET THAT PRE-VACCINE, THIS WAS A FRIGHTENINGLY SINISTER SPECTER. STREETS DESERTED, WE APPLAUDED FRONTLINE WORKERS ON OUR DOORSTEPS, BUT IT WASN’T JUST THE EMERGENCY SERVICES, EVERYDAY PEOPLE SHOWED EXTRAORDINARY COURAGE AND KEPT THE LIGHTS ON AND COMMUNITIES GOING. WILKO AND ITS STAFF TYPIFIED THAT FORTITUDE AND SPIRIT.
