“When the seeds of our Association were just beginning to grow, you were there from the beginning helping to lay the foundations for what we would become today,” Ms Skalkos said.

“What really sets Theo apart is not only the longevity of his service for 25 years, but the wisdom and experience he brings to the table.”
