Joe Mayo Award

“When you do the common things in an uncommon way

you will command the attention of the world.”

George Washington Carver

The Maine Hospice Council created the Joe Mayo Award in 2001 to recognize the untiring efforts of The Honorable Joseph Mayo, Clerk Emeritus of the Maine House of Representatives, to improve end-of-life care for all Maine citizens. His commitment to work on this issue at a time of tremendous personal challenge is inspirational to all who work with him. Because of Joe’s efforts, end-of-life care policy in Maine is a model for the nation. Award recipients receive an engraved crystal clock like the one shown here with quote and their name.
