The Commemorative Medal for the Golden Jubilee of Her
Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
Former Bell Canada Vice President Carol
Ann Cole received a big surprise while wrapping up her presentation
as keynote speaker at the annual Fall Meeting/Reunion of the Toronto
& Area Chapter BPG (Bell Pensioners Group.) BPG President Linda
Terrill presented Carol Ann with the Golden Jubilee Medal created by
the Government of Canada to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the
accession of Queen Elizabeth 11 to the Throne in 2002.
The medal was awarded to Carol Ann for her outstanding community
service during her career with Bell and beyond. As the founder of
the Comfort Heart Initiative, a fund-raiser that has raised over one
million dollars for cancer research, Carol Ann personally responds
to every Comfort Heart order that finds its way to her door.
"Receiving this award in front of my peers, many of whom had a very
positive influence on my career at Bell, made it even more special,"
said Carol Ann (holding her Order of Canada medal previously
presented.)
