In previous years, Gloucester County honored distinguished servants
by the display of their portraits in the county courthouse. When
these portraits were removed, they were mounted in two large albums for
continued display. More recently, the Gloucester Board of
Supervisors decided to continue this tradition by creating a third album
for additional honorees, and criteria for nominations were
established. Persons who have served Gloucester County with
distinction for a period of 25 years or more are eligible to be
nominated. Persons shall be nominated posthumously.
Nominations are open to all citizens of Gloucester County and include
appointed or elected officials and volunteers.
