Lorraine Cordova
MCOA Board Vice President
My journey into old age leaves me wondering -- what's next? I want to be part of the decision making process that allows older Alaskans like myself to live comfortable, meaningful lives. I'd like to conclude my sunset years with dignity and grace and make sure that all elders have that same opportunity.
