Desmond Wingard, WSFA’s former News Director who passed away 10/30/25 after a short battle with cancer. Desmond was an integral part of WSFA and was responsible for so many of the positive things our station has done for our community. Desmond was a dear friend to all that knew him and our race is in his honor to help raise funds for the Desmond Wingard Legacy in Journalism Scholarship at Troy University.
