It was nice to see Lenore Parker recognised for her tireless community work and longtime support of reconciliation.
On 13 February 2008 she became Clarence Valley Woman of the Year.
Ms. Parker was nominated by her daughter, well-known artist Frances Parker.
"Ms Parker was yesterday humble in her acceptance of the honour, acknowledging the contributions of other nominees and the generations of women who walked before her.
The Yaegl woman said she was honoured to accept the award, but emphasised she was doing so on behalf of all women."
