Introduction:
On August 14, 2000 Social Security Commissioner Kenneth Apfel
dedicated a 65th Anniversary Garden on the grounds of SSA headquarters
in Baltimore. The Garden is dedicated to the thousands of Social
Security employees, past and present, who have labored to build
this American Cornerstone.
The Garden consists of a small pond, with a bust of President
Roosevelt overlooking the site; and granite stones for each President
since FDR, commemorating a quotation from each President regarding
Social Security.
The Mistress of Ceremonies for the event was SSA Deputy Commissioner
for Finance, Assessment & Management, Yvette Jackson. SSA's
Chief of Staff, Brian Coyne, was also a featured speaker.
