As a deputy of 17 years, Wes Pitzer said he’s used to “being the one that helps people.” But after he and wife Nikki lost their Alto dream home in a fire earlier this month, Pitzer said he’s seen tremendous generosity from the Hall County Sheriff’s Office and his community. “I’m not used to being the one that needs help, and it’s just amazing how many people in the community have stepped forward,” he said.
