ANCHORAGE — George Rickard drove commercial vehicles for 11 years. Then one day, he could no longer see, and his career came to a halt.
Rickard lost vision due to diabetic retinopathy. But his working days are not behind him. He found the Alaska Center for the Blind and Visually Impaired, which provides education and training to help Alaskans with vision loss lead the best lives they can.
