Congratulations to Marj Hobe, one of our MMAP Voluneer Counselors at Region 2 Area Agency on Aging, who received the Jackson County Senior Volunteer of the Year Award at the Jackson County Fair on Senior Day.  Marj received the award for the selfless generosity of her time, stepping in to help beneficiaries scheduled with another counselor when she needed time off unexpectedly, offering to counsel at the Grass Lake Senior Center for those who could not travel into Jackson or Brooklyn, blocking part of her day to assist a participant with memory issues read and understand his mail, and just being helpful in general to the AAA staff when there are Medicare questions.
