This year, Senior Services of Alexandria is celebrating its Golden Anniversary. I first joined its board in 1983 when I was in my “middle years” because I was very impressed by its mission to serve the elderly of Alexandria. Now that I am very much a senior citizen myself, I am even more aware of its importance to the community.
Under the phenomenal leadership of Mary Lee Anderson, its present executive director, it has broadened the scope of its work in ways I never imagined years ago.
As one who made SSA a top priority in his service to the community, I want to take the opportunity, on this its Golden Anniversary, to express my appreciation to the Senior Services family for all that it has done and is doing.
The Rev. George A. Pera
