Introducing Black Beaver Medical Supply
There aren’t many opportunities to spend quality time with tribal citizens, and I was honored to meet Alfred Richard Molina, a descendant of Black Beaver! “Richard” is a pastor, Vietnam veteran of two tours, respiratory therapist, entrepreneur, and property owner dedicated to serving Native Americans through service and precision production occupations. His wife, Trudy Molina (Potawatomi), shares the same passion. She has spent many years in special education and loves serving others. Together, they plan to open a food & clothing pantry to serve the community!
