WILSON D. McKERRow <br /> 604 E1 ORY DRIVE <br /> CHAPEL Hn,t NORTH CAROLINA 27514 <br /> May 28, 1982 <br /> Mr. Richard M. Whitted <br /> Chairman <br /> Orange County Commissioners <br /> 106 East Margaret Lane <br /> Hillsborough, North Carolina 27278 <br /> Dear Mr. Whittedi <br /> This is in reply to Ms. Pridgen-Pond's request of May 11, 1982 <br /> as to my interest in serving another term on the Senior Citizens ' <br /> Board. I have given the matter careful consideration and decided <br /> it is not wise for me to be considered for reappointment to the <br /> Board. <br /> As you may know,, I was first appointed to the Board of Direct- <br /> ors at the former Orange County Council an Aging in 1976 and served <br /> as Chairman of the Search Committee which recommended the appointment <br /> of Jerry Passmore to succeed Charles Martin as Executive Director - <br /> a decision which has brought distinction and remarkable expansion <br /> to the County's programs for its older citizens. I also had the <br /> privilege to serve as Chairman of the Council's Board from October <br /> 1980 until it was dissolved in October 1980 following the estab- <br /> lishment at the County Department on Aging and Senior Citizen's <br /> Board. <br /> Service on the Board of the Council and for the past seventeen <br /> months an the Senior Citizens' Board has been a source of great <br /> satisfaction and I shell always cherish the opportunity it has aff- <br /> arded for association with the fine people I have come to know and <br /> admire in their dedicated service to the senior citizens of the <br /> County. I especially appreciate the courtesies always extended by <br /> the County Commissioners, <br /> As a concerned citizen I will be available in any way I can to <br /> assist the Department on Aging and other County services in meeting <br /> the needs of its people - young and old, Please call an me at any <br /> time. <br /> t <br /> cci Ms. Paulette Pridgen-Pond .on D. MoK ow <br /> Clerk to the Board of Commissioners <br /> Mr. Jerry Passmore, Director <br /> Department on Aging <br />
