Ed Wesley was born in Bolivar County, Mississippi, on January 9, 1951. He moved to Fort Greeley, Alaska, in 1973 after being drafted into the Army. His wife joined him shortly thereafter and the two raised all five of their children here and the two have never lived outside Alaska since. He was elected president of the Anchorage NAACP in 1981 and led the charge to change the way the Anchorage Police Department uses deadly force. Wesley has served on the boards of numerous organizations such as treasurer for the Anchorage Council of PTAs, Worshipful Master of Mt McKinley Lodge #2 and Grand Jr Warden of Prince Hall Masons State of Alaska and its’ jurisdiction, chairman of the 3rd great Alaska high school basketball classic tournament, Municipality of Anchorage Zoning Board of Examiners and Appeals, vice president of Anchorage Board of Realtors, president of Alaska Black Leadership Conference, president of the African American Business Council, president of the African American Historical Society (sponsor of Juneteenth) and Board of Trustees for the State of Alaska Personnel Retirement System. A veteran’s advocate for many years, Wesley has served on the Veterans Volunteer Committee at the Alaska Veterans Administration Hospital. He is past commander of American Legion Post 34, where he sponsored activities for Veterans. He has raised funds for local Disabled Veterans to attend the National Wheel Chair Games. He has worked towards and championed youth activities continually in Anchorage. Wesley has been honored by the Alaska State Legislature as a nation builder for his community service and the National Association of Black State Legislators for his community service. He has also served as Deacon of the Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church and is here in the capitol with Shiloh Community Housing advocating for funds for their new Community Resource Center.

Delmonicia Shenee Williams is the President and CEO of Shiloh Community Housing, Incorporated, an organization she has been serving since its inception 24 years ago. Although her degree is in computer science and she has had a career as a computer programmer and systems analyst, her true passion is public service and she has helped bring the vision of Shiloh Community Housing to life. From its first affordable housing project through its transitional home for youth to today and its potential Community Resource Center, Shenee Williams has been at the center of these important projects that have diminished homelessness in Anchorage.
