Turner Award goes to two of Metro’s best

The quarterly George Turner Awards were bestowed recently on two outstanding Metro Transit bus drivers.

The award is given by the Northwest Chapter of Paralyzed Veterans Association to recognize and show appreciation for transit operators who best exemplify a positive attitude and awareness of the needs of the elderly and disabled in our communities.

The most recent recipients were South Base Operator Tammy Klein and East Base Operator Patricia Morneau. They were presented with certificates, lapel pins and their names are engraved on the George Turner plaque that will be displayed at their worksites.
