Shelli and Billy have designated SeniorLAW Center as the charity of choice for donations in memoriam. To honor Bill’s commitment to supporting vulnerable populations at both ends of the life cycle, all gifts made in his memory will be earmarked in support of SeniorLAW Center’s Grandparents Raising Grandchildren (GRG) Program.
If funding for the GRG program exceeds program needs, SeniorLAW Center will direct funds where they are needed by our service population most as determined by the Board of Directors. In honor of Bill’s legacy, please consider making a donation to SeniorLAW Center, the organization to which he dedicated his time and immense talent.
WHAT DO YOU DO IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL LIFE?
Attorney, formerly chancellor of Philadelphia Bar Association
WHY ARE YOU INVOLVED WITH SENIORLAW CENTER?
I felt it was important to continue to serve the community after serving as Chancellor and I always felt close to the mission of SLC. We all have stories of seniors in our life who have meant so much to us; it is important that they remain legally protected during their senior years, when they are so vulnerable.
HIGHLIGHT OF YOUR BOARD MEMBERSHIP / LEADERSHIP?
Simply serving is it’s own reward. Being Gala co-chair with my wife in 2016 was special as was observing the great generosity of a former board member at a recent board meeting.
OTHER WAYS YOU SERVE AS A VOLUNTEER FOR SLC?
Volunteer events
WHY DO YOU THINK OTHERS SHOULD SUPPORT SENIORLAW CENTER?
All of us know of the need to support SLC. It is, in a way, a tribute to our parents and grandparents.
OTHER LEADERSHIP POSITIONS AND WAYS YOU GIVE BACK?
I speak up to all my friends about SLC. Sometimes, this results in support and help from unexpected sources such as Judge Jack Panella and other judges throughout the Commonwealth, and from former Heavy weight Champion Larry Holmes. I think part of our mission is to be constant cheerleaders for SLC.
