My Why: Liz Kirk

Born in Santa Anna California to a military family, Elizabeth quickly moved to San Antonio Texas where she grew up and attended high school at MacArthur High, after graduating she met her husband and relocated to Bandera where her husband lived. Elizabeth and her husband, with their 3 daughters built a small horse farm, currently showing and raising these beautiful animals.

Elizabeth has over 30 years experience in the medical field with 25 years of behavioral health. Elizabeth started her own small business 25 years ago. Today she is blessed with 2 granddaughters and hopes for many more.

My Why:

After watching and living with my Father who was a Marine, and like so many others, used alcohol to numb his pain from War, I’ve seen first hand the destruction our lives went through. I recently lost my father, 3 years ago, and had an empty hole in my heart as we really didn’t have the typical father daughter relationship.

Warriors Heart just dropped on me, from the moment I saw the facility, read their mission statement, I felt like this is where I belonged. I couldn’t help my dad, but I could do the next best thing, by becoming part of the team and help others.
