Larry Murphree Bestowed Lifetime Mwpcoa Membership

New Albany resident Larry Murphree was awarded a MWPCOA Lifetime Membership at the Association’s Annual Meeting in July.  Murphree retired from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, North Regional Office in Oxford  in June where he worked for 30 years as an Environmental Training Instructor.  Murphree worked closely with the MS Water and Pollution Control Operators Association instructing at short courses over the years.

 When presented the award, Murphree said, “I don’t know what to say, except thank you.  This award is bittersweet in the fact that I know that this particular Lifetime Membership belonged to Don Scott and he was a mentor and very close friend.  I thank the Board of Governors and all of the members for honoring me with this lifetime membership.”

 The Operators’ Association By-Laws allow for only 10 Lifetime Memberships to be awarded.  “An Honorary Lifetime Member shall be a person who has rendered valuable and outstanding service in advancing the objectives of the Association”.
