“We are very pleased to honor two of North Carolina’s finest citizens with these awards because I know, as so many other people know, that our state is a much better place today because of what they have contributed over the years,” said NCCBI President Phil Kirk of Goodmon and Citation for Distinguished Public Service recipient Russell Robinson. “One thing they have in common is their commitment to the hard, often unglamorous work of improving our communities.”

NCCBI has bestowed the Citation for Distinguished Citizenship annually since 1963 to honor an individual’s life of service to the state and their community. The luncheon was part of a daylong event for NCCBI’s 60th Annual Meeting.
