Andy Warhol said in the future we will all have our 15 minutes of fame. I have
lived a charmed life and had my 15 minutes more than once.
In 2002 I was fortunate enough to not only be nominated,
but elected the Outstanding Older Worker in the State of Alabama for 2002. It was truly an honor. I was invited
to attend the Experience Works Prime Time Awards. Among the awards were for the Oldest worker who was Ray Crist of Pa. a mere 103 years young.
The biggest
honor was meeting all the Congressmen and Senators, visiting Washington DC, I realized that it (Washington DC) belongs to
us, the citizens of the US. I was given an award at the event...but the biggest award was being able to not only attend,
but to be a part of something so grandeur.
