The
Winners’ Circle is the place where the best and brightest gather to be
honored for their accomplishments. For the 2010 Who’s Who in Tennessee
Nursing Homes, 102 patients from 80 facilities were recognized as the best
of the best.
“Each
year, a select group of patients at THCA member facilities is called forward
to accept nomination to Who’s Who in Tennessee Nursing Homes,” said THCA
Executive Director Ron Taylor. “These patients truly have made a difference
through accomplishments in their careers and contributions to their family,
country and communities. It is a privilege to welcome them to The Winners’
Circle.”
Among
the 2010 honorees are many distinguished military veterans, dedicated
teachers, caring nurses, talented musicians, successful men and women, and
loving husbands and wives. The list includes Lorraine Kraus, a leading
researcher on sickle cell disease; Donald Austin, a talented musician whose
song “Get With It” was recognized by the Rockabilly Hall of Fame; and Jim
Williams, who traveled around the world performing a comedy and magic act as
“The Great Carazini.”
