WHEREAS, Jane Bauknecht, longtime executive director of the Adult Care Center of the Northern Shenandoah Valley, retired in 2020; and

WHEREAS, the Adult Care Center of the Northern Shenandoah Valley (ACC) was established in 1993 by a group of local residents with family members who had dementia or other illnesses requiring attentive care, and Jane Bauknecht became executive director shortly after the facility opened in the City of Winchester; and

WHEREAS, Jane Bauknecht has been essential to the success of ACC, and her compassion, kindness, and dedication have been an inspiration to both her colleagues and members of the community; and

WHEREAS, Jane Bauknecht previously worked at Rose Hill Nursing Home and Clarke County Senior Center, where she learned from experience that clients with dementia and other illnesses required significantly more care than many of their fellow seniors; and
