The Middlesex County NAACP Honors Dr. Lecce with its Community Service Award

A message from Mark Masselli concerning the recognition of Dr. Lecce’s work by the Middlesex County NAACP

Last  night,  the Middlesex County NAACP honored Dr. Lecce with its Community Service award. This comes from a group that has for over one hundred years been at the forefront of promoting  social justice for all . The  NAACP is committed to eliminating the racial and ethnic disparities in our health care system that plague people of color in the United States . I can’t think of a better recipient of this honor then Dr. Lecce who has toiled in the vineyard unselfishly for decades. He is well known in our communities for his openness and respect for every human being.

This year we celebrate Carl’s 35th year of service – he is an inspiration to all of us.

Last night I took a few pictures of Carl – yes that is him holding a microphone and speaking, as well as pictured receiving the award and with his lovely wife, Jennifer.

Carl,  thank you and congratulations.
