A
It's
a
pleasure
to
be
here
and
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
also
thank
our
local
network
providers
who
support
this
program
every
year,
I
made
nominations,
namely,
and
maybe
from
contact
people
and
mjt
persky's
when
Peggy
backtracked
that
our
iTunes
you
can't
be
here
today,
we
have
representative
celery.
Thank
you
very
much
at
this
point.
The
program
I
am
proud
to
introduce
that
they
any
County
executive,
Dennis
Levinson,
is.
B
A
pleasure
to
be
here
and
I'm
honored
to
be
your
County
Executive,
especially
for
it
at
times
like
this,
is
our
29th
time
that
we
have
honored
people
with
disabilities
here
in
Atlanta,
County
miss
many
functions.
I've,
never
missed
this
extremely
important
to
me
and
obviously,
to
you,
I
wanna
tell
you
a
story
which
is
a
true
story
as
bizarre
as
it
may
seem,
as
I
tell
I'm
a.
C
B
Of
the
TCM,
the
old
movies
in
I
watch
them
to
be
generally
the
movies
that
you
see
today
to
make
them
interesting
upset.
You
know,
violence,
you
have
disarm
behaviors
and
these
old
movies.
You
couldn't
curse.
If
somebody
got
shot
and
didn't
believe
in
a
terrific
plot
to
get
the
story
over,
not
just
the
incredible
crashes
and
explosions
and
the
things
so
I
watch
it
to
continually,
and
we
were
talking
the
other
day
with
some
other
movie
props
and
they
were
talking
about
their
or
the
effort.
B
C
B
Comes
in
contact
with
a
doll
that
has
narcotics
and
that's
a
bad
guy,
he's
worn
now
too
many
people
and
she
is
the
bad
guys,
come
to
her
apartment
to
get
the
doll.
And
rather,
if
you
want
to
see
the
movie
we're
talking
and
one
of
the
people
I'm
stuffing,
they
stick
it
out.
That's
an
idiot
block,
preposterous
practical
idiot
likes
and
I
saw
I.
Don't
think
that
it
was
fact.
B
B
That's
a
stupid
and
Stevie
Wonder
playing
chess
I
said
you
know
it.
Maybe
it's
a
coupe
of
Stevie
Wonder
playing
chess,
but
it's
not
as
stupid
as
Ray
Charles
player
chance,
because
Ray
Charles
played
chess
and
anybody
know
that
by
the
way
you
did
playhead
suggests
a
race,
but
I
swear
all
the
sink,
all
right.
They
were
raised
and
yes,
pins
on
the
bottom
of
chess
pieces
and
you
would
play
chess
and
he
became
quite
accomplished
in
fact,
their
way
to
their
chest.
D
B
What
I'm
trying
to
say
is
it
is
not
the
pastas
extraordinary
things
can
occur
and
disability
does
not
mean
in
any
way
shape
or
form
in
another,
and
that's
something
that
the
recipients
today
have
proved
and,
in
behalf
of
a
very
grateful
and
very
proud
Lana
County
I
want
to
wish
you
the
very
very
best
of
everything.
Thank
you
so
much
for
taking
the
time
out
of
your
day
participating
in
this.
In
this
event,
and
by
the
way
it's
the
sights
family
dining
sites
it
is
named,
maybe
I
should
have
started
that
way.
B
Really
making
the
same
sound
to
make
the
noise
not
for
you,
it
is
a
large
family
by
the
way,
the
Irish
and
the
large
families,
but
they
are
hey
thanks
for
coming
and
thanks
for
being
us
so
much
a
part
of
it,
of
course,
without
Jake
blessed.
So
much
of
these
things
would
not
have
occurred
for
the
disabled
here
in
this
camp
once
again.
Thank
you
so
very
much
at
this
point.
The
program
we're
going
to
start.
A
F
This
is
truly
an
honor.
Thank
you
very
much,
thank
you
that
had
honored
me
and
she
she
supported
me
and
helped
me
become
the
person
that
I
am
long.
As
my
parents
are
sitting
over
here,
she
said:
I
started
with
relief
foundation
and
that
is
to
help
people
with
spinal
cord
injuries
and
disabilities.
All
together
having
a
disability
can
be
very
complicated,
emotionally
and
physically.
So
I
wanted
to
build
something
for
all
disabilities
where
they
could
find.
F
G
Moreno
and
her
Tamika
Levinson,
all
those
that
are
here.
We
have
the
county
of
Atlantic,
we're
very
proud
of
her
here.
To
be
able
to
present
this
award
to
you,
we
have
a
number
of
certificates,
I,
hope.
We've
got
a
wall
hanging
wall
somewhere
this
vector
space.
We
have
one
thing:
the
county
executive.
G
H
I
J

C
K
Good
afternoon,
everyone,
my
name,
is
Kirk
Olson,
my
strength
of
the
Community
Employment
Services
at
30
career
opportunity
development.
It's
our
pleasure,
my
pleasure.
The
nominee
Kevin
do
so
for
the
Donald
Sykes
award
I
have
a
little
something
I
read
about
Kevin.
Wasn't
it
told
Kevin
was
almost
40
years
old
when
he
was
diagnosed
with
bipolar
disorder.
Prior
to
this
diagnosis,
erratic
was
his
life
Kevin
stroke
struggled
with
his
illness.
He
could
not
mean
gain
employment
for
an
extended
period
of
time
and
often
struggle
throughout
marriage
to
support
his
way.
K
Particularly,
you
could
not
understand
why
you
often
suffered
with
bouts
of
depression
or
mania
which
inevitably
affected
his
marriage
instability.
His
anxiety,
often
what's
too
good
militating
to
function
and
his
marriage
ended.
The
2008
Kevin
was
eventually
referred
to
Cody
to
participate
in
the
extended
Employment
Program
there
he
was
able
to
adjust
a
daily
routine
of
employment,
become
more
understanding
and
stable
with
the
symptoms
of
his
diagnosis.
Is
that
so
his
episodic
life
was
beginning
to
diminish.
K
He
was
a
good
man,
eventually
referring
to
Cody's
residential
program
and
truly
started
his
road
to
recovery
and
stability.
He
began
working
in
Cody's
janitorial
maintenance
program.
It
quickly
became
a
valuable
asset
to
the
team
assigned
to
the
state
set-aside
programs
throughout
Wayne
County.
He
became
one
of
Cody's
top
performers
and
was
promoted
to
the
crew
member.
He
is
now
the
lead
crew
member
of
sites
in
Atlantic,
County,
Criminal
courthouse.
This
is
a
high
profile
profile
location
and
the
maintenance
crew
must
always
be
on
top
of
their
game.
K
We
continue
to
receive
many
accolades
regarding
the
contents
of
that
facility.
Steady
employment,
that's
contributed
to
his
well-being
and
he
now
lives
independently.
The
perfect
heaven
is
a
true
asset
to
us
he's
a
true
success
story,
an
example
to
many
other
to
Cody,
he's
learned
at
bribe
on
his
own
and
he's
not
hindered
by
mental
illness
as
he
was
in
the
past.
He
continues
to
contribute
to
Cody's
success
on
a
daily
basis
and
it's
considered
a
valuable
member
of
our
team.
K
It's
my
pleasure
to
nominate
Kenneth
I
also
have
one
thing
to
say:
officially:
Cody
and
its
staff
through
truly
express
our
sincere
appreciation
to
Atlantic
County
government
on
their
ongoing
commitment
to
the
mission
to
provide
services
to
the
individuals
with
disabilities
and
creating
independence
through
housing
and
employment.
Kohi
currently
operates
coffee
shops
in
each
of
the
county
courthouses,
as
well
as
the
maintenance
contracts
in
the
western
section
of
the
county.
Atlantic
County
has
always
supported
our
sub
sales
and
many
of
its
endeavors
and
ultimately,
through
support.
K
L
I'd,
just
like
that
I
think
one
of
the
best
decisions
I've
made
in
my
life
was
coming
to
Cody.
They
really
helped
me
turn.
L
G
Wars
and
we're
very,
very
proud
of
what
you've
been
able
to
achieve
with
a
very
proud
of
Kody
program,
they're,
glad
County
and
all
the
people
that
work
so
very
hard
to
make
it
all
possible.
So
when
they
have
the
Linda
County
on
behalf
finest
a
little
beyond
the
entire
free
water
board.
This
county
very
proud
of
your
achievements,
and
we
should
all
the
best
keep
going
and
keep
growing
strong.

O

A
P
O
P
Sea
without
them,
I
would
not
take
them
so
for
Jacob.
Jacob
is
determination,
tried
to
succeed
in
life,
open
stores
and
many
doors
that
could
be
closed
because
of
the
sea
thing
he's
an
advocate
for
all
with
disabilities
by
using
Facebook
and
radio.
He
has
a
networking
tool.
He
is
a
nohrin
networking
tool.
His
happy
personality
is
welcome
to
our
world.
Sometime
is
ugly.
He
looks
for
the
good
in
us
and
the
things
around
him
and
John
Glaser
should
be
saying
on
this.
P
D
I
just
want
to
say
how
I
am
to
be
here
today,
but
all
the
recipients
ahead
of
you
as
well.
Yeah
I
I
had
a
mother
that
had
a
disability
with
all
the
sources
and
I
understand
the
strength
and
it
takes
every
day
but
to
see
the
smiles
in
everybody's
face
when
they
leave
overcome.
It
is
just
truly
amazing
and
I'll
be
having
a
freeholder
board
and
congressman
lo
beyond
that,
we'd
like
to
offer.
N
Q
Q
Q
Helps
me
put
together
mailing
patient
folders
I.
She
creates
email
list
for
me
and
recently
we've
been
working
on
an
eBay
store
and
she's.
Helping
me
out,
put
it
over
the
inventory.
Also,
where
is
the
current
neighborhood
association
and
volunteer
on
their
Guardians?
Carry
the
Spiker
illness
Margaret
walks
in
every
day
the
big
smile
she
persevered.
It's
always
positive.
She's
truly
been
an.
R
That
there
are
people
there
that
have
truly
stood
by
me
and
helped
me
when
I
repeatedly
repeatedly
repeatedly
ask
questions.
My
mom
and
my
sister
are
here
with
me
today,
and
they
have
been
a
true
true,
true
help
and
they
stopped
by
any
family
life
as
well.
As
you
know,
getting
me
to
back
back,
and
you
know
helping
me
to
achieve
different
goals
as
well,
but
baggage.
We
build
my
confidence
tremendously.
G
Okay,
all
right
very
good.
Are
you
running
good?
Alright
and,
of
course
your
volunteerism
is
certainly
to
be
commended,
because
volunteerism
is
everything,
so
that's
a
gift,
it's
more
precious
than
money,
precious
than
anything.
So
once
you
give
of
your
time,
it's
a
commodity
that
you
cannot
get
back
ever
so
on
behalf
of
Wayne
County.
We
thank
you
for
your
work,
your
volunteering,
and
we
wish
you
all
the
best
and
I'll
bring
out
the
presenters
to
you.
Congratulations.
A
S
Residence,
he
too
is
a
graduate
of
Atlantic
City,
High,
School
and
we'd
kind
of
like
to
have
Jimmy
on
the
dr.
Oz
Show,
because
he
was
nominated
because
for
the
last
three
years,
he's
lost
35
pounds
and
he
has
decreased
in
doctors,
appointments
by
what
over
half
just
amazing.
But
what
really
is
most
important?
It's
the
steps
she
took
in
moving
to
our
central
root
ball
in
that
you've
become
the
big
brother
to
everyone
who.
S
In
what's
important
is
that
you
just
make
it
a
family
home,
you
make
it
important
to
the
staff
to
be
there.
They
were
very,
very
happy
with
that.
He
also
is
a
huge
decorator
for
the
holidays,
so
if
you
ever
get
to
drive
by
our
house
and
stop
in
a
seat
Jimmy,
it's
just
an
amazing
for
every
holiday,
but
I
think
one
of
the
reasons
that
got
this
award
was
that
heat
gives
back
in
many
ways,
as
we
can.
One
of
the
things
that
he
likes
to
do
is
donate
to
local
animal
shelters.
S
C
S
T
She
was
a
little
picky
she's
at
my
left
arm.
When
I
first
received
notice
about
the
opportunity
to
nominate
a
contacting
Atlantic
volunteer,
it
was
a
very
easy
choice.
Jerry
Samson,
this
is
Jerry
immediately,
came
to
mind.
She
was
our
2016
Dorothy
got
a
reassurance
volunteer
of
the
year
for
contact
Keith
Atlantic,
and
that
is
the
highest
award
that
our
agency
does
about.
T
E
T
Our
volunteers
managed
68,000
calls,
but
here's
scary
story:
Jerry
has
been
a
volunteer
for
almost
two
years.
She
helps
with
phone
calls
every
Monday
and
Thursday
afternoon
and
then
every
Friday
afternoon
she
does
a
full
shipment
calls
today
is
Thursday,
so
we
have
to
get
a
fill
in
for
Jerry
today,
we'll
be
met.
T
C
C
T
C
T
Ruthless
art
reviews
it
with
her
and
she
converts
it
into
Braille.
Jerry
has
two
sons:
art
who's
here
and
Albert.
She's
told
me
that
her
sons
are
who
have
been
her
eyes.
Joseph
tells
me
that
she
found
the
perfect
place
for
her
in
contact
and
she
loves
having
her
clients.
Jerry
is
an
excellent
volunteer.
When
she
heard
about
us
on
wo
ND,
she
told
me
she
thought
she
broke
the
number
down
wrong,
but
you
did
get.
T
M
I
just
want
to
thank
you
and
I
stayed
here
to
represent.
All
of
the
volunteers
of
contact
were
a
big
family.
It's
awesome,
I
love
the
ones
that
fall,
and
it's
so
important
because
there's
so
many
of
the
elderly
people
helping
that
do
not
even
get
a
call
the
day
even
from
family
matters.
So
it
is
a
privilege
and
honor
to
be
a
part
of
the
contact
family,
I
love,
my
callers
I've
grown
to
love
them
and.
C
M
Spend
time
and
talk
with
them
and
and
I
think
my
son
heart
for
his
healthy
I
thank
the
Lord
for
showing
me
the
way
to
contact
as
I
love
it
and
as
a
part
of
my
life
and
it's
a
blessing
to
put
a
smile
on
somebody's
face.
Whatever
anybody
out,
there
is
a
mom
or
a
dad
or
a
parent
saying.
No
one
ever
has
safe
to
pick
up.
The
phone
call
tell
them
you're
thinking
about
them,
and
you
love
them.
M
G
Congressman
LoBiondo,
thank
you
for
your
work.
Contacts
gonna
run
long
long
time
how
many
years
44
it
has
been
a
long
long
time
and
a
lot
of
great
work.
My
mother
now
is
91
and
we're
having
some
issues
now,
and
my
sister
and
I
here
are
therefore
and
I
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
folks
that
are
up
in
those
years
that
don't
have
faculty
and
you're.

Afternoon,
everyone
we
are
so
honored
to
be
among
such
an
incredible
group
of
people
and
congratulations
to
everybody.
Today.
Jason
Struthers
is
a
terribly
unique
individual
37
years
old.
He
is
living
in
South
Korea
and
a
freelance
multimedia
journalist
who
first
was
an
exchange
student
there,
but
he
is
from
Hamilton
Township
nice
landing
where
he
still
calls
home
with
his
mom
and
he's
traveling
the
world,
never
letting
his
abilities
get
in
the
way
of
his
fantastic
work.
V
M
V
Return
to
Seoul
Korea,
where
he
wasn't
exchanged
and
where
he's
been
for
11
years
he's
an
adjunct.
Professor
at
Montclair
he's
also
a
graduate
and
he
is
a
volunteer
whenever
he's
home
in
New
Jersey
for
the
camp
for
the
blind
for
children
who
are
also
struggling
with
those
issues.
What's
interesting
about
Jason.
Is
he
reports
on
many
things,
some
of
which
include
travels
and
most
recently,
how
to
best
tour
Seoul
Korea
unlicensed?
U
U
Oh,
you
know
what
if
he
was
able
to
do
the
things
he's
done
with
the
disability
that
he
has
certainly
there's
a
lot
of
hope
for
people
in
the
future
with
disabilities
such
as
seeds,
and
maybe
work
even
worse
than
his.
So
the
next
day,
I
went
and
suggested
us
recommending
him
for
the
Donald
site
to
work
to
my
boss
morning
bucket,
and
then
here
we
are
today-
and
this
is
his
mother
Lisa.
W
Jason
wanted
me
to
thank
everybody.
He
couldn't
be
here,
he's
in
Seoul
right
now,
so
I'd
like
to
thank
everybody,
Danny
Levinson,
who
I've
known
for
a
long
time,
the
freeholders
and
the
Atlantic
County
disability
advisory
board.
Thank
you.
So
much
is
statement.
If
you'd
like
to
say
something
and
I
said.
Oh,
we.

Been
coming
to
these
events,
five
six
seven
years-
and
it
always
amazes
me
but
I-
think
the
best
description
is
for
all
the
recipients
and
everybody
that
it
isn't
it's.
We
have
ability
day
at
some
point
in
the
county
and
you
know
there's
been
such
a
statement
with
the
people
that
have
been
called
disabilities.
But
the
amazing
stories
that
we
hear
here
are
just
a
tribute.
