She had a Dream

Yesterday I attended the dedication of our Water Plant to name it after our friend and former Lake Worth Commissioner, Jo-Ann Golden.

I learned a lot about Jo-Ann that I never knew and it was an enlightening dedication to a wonderful lady who passed about three years ago.

There were several speakers at the ceremony: Mayor Betty Resch, Vice Mayor Christopher McVoy, Tom Biggs with Mock Roos who gave us a history of the design, funding and construction, Garry Baker Water Plant Manager, Jo-Ann's brother, Dr. Thomas Golden, her nephew Jean-Marc Golden and former commissioner, Cara Jennings.

A few of the members of the Lake Worth High School band were there to provide music and Lauren Bennett was the gal who coordinated the entire event.

All in all, it was a wonderful and emotional tribute to a remarkable woman who was inspirational in the development of our Reverse Osmosis Water Plant. She had a dream that came true for Lake Worth and now we have the best water around.
