VOLUNTEER OF THE DECADE: Bob Quint
"I feel like I am so very fortunate that volunteering is a way for me to give just a little bit back to the community that I live and work in.

And through volunteering, I have met so many wonderful people from all different backgrounds and that is an added bonus."
