AM 630 WNEG names our Active Senior of the Year.

Thursday, Emily Cash was named the Active Senior of the Year at the WNEG Senior Expo on Thursday at the Rose Lane Recreation Complex.

Cash said she is honored to win the award.

“I feel like I am not worthy, but thank you so much for the great honor,” said Cash. “I love Toccoa and all the people in Toccoa and have all my life. I appreciate this great honor that has been bestowed upon me today.”

Cash graduated from Toccoa High School and then traveled the western United States, sharing the Gospel with thousands.

In 1956, she married Maurice Cash, who passed away in September 2014.

Emily has remained devoted to her family and has also served as a Sunday School teacher and organist at Lamar Christian Church.

She also worked outside the home for a number of years and was active in many civic and professional organizations.

That includes Credit Women International, where she once served as President, Secretary, Treasurer, Chaplain, and Vice President.
