WARREN T. CLOUD

        The Middle Atlantic Chapter's highest award is given only to those whose service to the Chapter and its members is well beyond the normal participation and contributions.
        This recipient richly warrants this recognition. A long-time member of the Chapter, he has always actively participated in Chapter activities. He has always been a loyal and enthusiastic booster for the genus rhododendron, the American Rhododendron Society, and the Middle Atlantic Chapter.
        He has been a faithful contributor to our plant auctions. He consistently exhibits outstanding plants at our truss shows and has won many awards for his plants.
        The fascinatingly lovely garden which he and his wonderful wife created was always open to everyone. Over the years it attracted hundreds of visitors and he always seemed to find time to give personal tours.
        He developed a slide program which he presented to numerous organizations stirring more and more interest in rhododendrons and azaleas. He generously shared cuttings and plants as well as expertise with others. His love of all living things characterized his every thought and action.
        For his many, many years of service, the Middle Atlantic Chapter is proud to present the Bronze Medal to Warren T. Cloud. Given this 10th day of May, 1980
