The Ohio Department of Aging celebrates outstanding older Ohioans for their achievements and contributions to others; for the roles they play in their communities, state and nation; and for what they do to promote productive and enjoyable lives. Since 1977, more than 350 individuals have been inducted into the Ohio Senior Citizens Hall of Fame for contributions toward the benefit of humankind after age 60, or for a continuation of efforts begun before that age.
The Area Agency on Aging District 7 enjoys attending the event held in May during Older Americans Month, to honor all of the inductees, especially the individuals who represent the Agency’s 10-county district.
