Seniors awarded at Gwinnett Council for Seniors Awards Luncheon

May 20th, 2011

We enjoyed a lovely lunch at Bethesda Park Senior Center yesterday as the Gwinnett Council for Seniors honored its senior clubs and their volunteers. (AHCS was invited there as a sponsor of the guild.) Some of the award winners included: a man who runs the gift shop he started at Delmar Gardens, a woman who has volunteered for Norcross Meals on Wheels since 1983 and a 95 year old woman who is a Gwinnett Senior Olympics champ who helps out more than five organizations. Keep up the good work, you “recycled teenagers” said one award giver. “You are the greatest generation,” added Judy Jordan, mayor of Lawrenceville, GA. And as one AARP member put it, “the best of life is the joy of service.”
