As you know, the Messer Award recognizes a community that has excelled in addressing the needs of its older citizens. It is named in honor of Ernest B. Messer, a champion for aging in the General Assembly and former assistant secretary for aging for the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. Your Department on Aging and the Shepherd's Center of Greater Winston-Salem share the distinction of being organizations that excel in serving our older population. On behalf of the Division of Aging and Adult Services, I congratulate you and the Orange County Department on Aging on this honor and look forward to presenting the award to you and your Department in the near future. Please contact Mary Edwards of the Division at your convenience, and we will arrange an appropriate time and place to present the award to your organization. Again, it is a privilege to present this award to your exemplary organization and to formally recognize your many contributions to Orange County and the aging community in North Carolina.
