Achieva Family Trust says Farewell to a Good Friend

Blog Post

Article from Amy Dolan Strano, President, Achieva Family Trust

“It’s always good to be a friend.” - Elaine Cole

On September 13, 2024 the Achieva Family Trust Social Services Committee met to wish a happy and healthy retirement to longtime member and friend Elaine Cole.  Those present shared stories about how Elaine has been a valuable resource to Achieva Family Trust throughout the years. Pictured here with Elaine are Nancy McMillan and Amy Dolan Strano. 

In her role as Public Affairs Specialist for the Social Security Administration, Elaine has provided guidance and assistance to our staff as we navigated challenging issues pertaining to social security benefits for our trust beneficiaries. What started as a professional relationship has blossomed into friendships. 

All present agreed that we would miss Elaine’s contributions to the Committee and of course her smile. We agree with her quote, “It’s always good to be a friend” and we will keep that in mind as we continue to face challenging situations. Farewell and Happy Retirement to our friend!
