Meet Grant Weathers
Golf was Grant’s life—until he was diagnosed with Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy. The condition caused him to go legally blind and ended his career as a PGA golf pro. Then he learned about IFB Solutions, where he started in the Impulse Merchandise Program and is now the low vision services and outreach coordinator in Asheville, NC. “I’ve never worked for a company that is so empowering,” Grant said. “I’m proud to work here.” To learn more about Asheville low vision services and resources, contact Grant at 828-761-2468 or gweathers@ifbsolutions.org.

Meet Shonn Redmond
Shonn, who was born with glaucoma, landed a great job after college—but it lacked low vision support that he needed. At IFB Solutions, he met others with low vision who shared their stories and inspiration. Now he does the same in Winston-Salem, NC, as an IFB Solutions associate and president of the Glaucoma Support Group. “That’s what IFB Solutions is here for,” he said. “To aid your vision so you can achieve what you want to achieve.” To learn more about Winston-Salem low vision services and resources, contact Shonn at 336-759-0551 ext. 5782 or sredmond@ifbsolutions.org.

More about the Winston-Salem Location
The Winston-Salem location is dedicated to Ronald Glenn Sherrill, 1948 – 2021.
Ronnie, as he was known to his vast community of family, friends, non profits, and business associates, lived a life that demonstrated the golden rule: treat others like you want to be treated. A native of Charlotte, N.C., Ronnie attended N.C. State University, graduating with a degree in civil engineering and after graduation joined his father’s business, SteelFab . While summers and school breaks had been spent in the plant , he moved into sales, estimating and project management, becoming President in 1980 and retiring as Chairman and CEO in 2017. He valued family and relationships in work, considering it a privilege to work alongside his father, brothers, and sons, was an avid golfer, and was quietly involved in the support of numerous non profits. After loosing sight in one eye, he gained a new perspective on vision needs in the North Carolina community. The generosity of the Sherrill family and friends ensures greater access to life changing products and resources for people with low vision.
