Joe Recomendes ’66 and his wife Suzanne have been major contributors to EagleEyes, enabling the program to expand and reach more students. In a recent interview Joe explains the Recomendes’ special connection to the project:

“We knew we wanted to make a contribution to the school and EagleEyes really sparked something… I thought back to the times when we experienced hospital stays with our own two kids. I remember looking around, knowing that our kids were going to be okay and thinking: that just isn’t the same for every family. By contributing to EagleEyes, we hope we can help level the playing field and help some of those families out.”

Joe and Suzanne were able to see the magic of EagleEyes first hand in a recent demonstration. They described the huge smile of the student and the contagious enthusiasm of the mom.

“Anyone who’s ever been a parent,” explains Suzanne, “understands what it’s like to want your child to be the best he can be.”
