Jack and Wanda Weinblatt
As physician and emergency medic for the Temple Fire and Rescue Department, Dr. Jack Weinblatt was named Honorary Fire Chief. Whenever a fire alarm sounded, he was there ready to help, sometimes arriving before the fire trucks. In 1990 with his wife, Wanda, he established the Jack and Wanda Weinblatt Scholarship at Temple College for City of Temple firefighters and their families.

My dad has been a fire fighter all my life. There’s been so many times he’s put his life in danger for others, and now his job is actually helping me go to college. This is another gift from him that I never expected.
